Ingredients:

1 tablespoon coconut oil

1 large onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated

1.5 pounds chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces

3 tablespoons Thai red curry paste

1 can (14 oz) coconut milk

1 tablespoon fish sauce

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 yellow bell pepper, sliced

1 zucchini, sliced

Juice of 1 lime

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

Salt to taste

Directions:

Set the Instant Pot to Sauté mode and heat the coconut oil. Add the onion, garlic, and ginger, sautéing until the onion is translucent.

Add the chicken pieces to the pot and cook until they are just starting to brown.

Stir in the Thai red curry paste, ensuring the chicken is well coated. Cook for a minute to release the flavors.

Pour in the coconut milk, fish sauce, and brown sugar, mixing well. Add the sliced bell peppers and zucchini on top without stirring.

Secure the lid of the Instant Pot and set it to Manual (High Pressure) for 8 minutes. Once the cooking time is up, use a quick release to depressurize.

Open the lid carefully, stir in the lime juice, and season with salt to taste.

Serve the curry garnished with fresh cilantro.
