2. Add in the chicken and stir to coat the chicken pieces in the sauce. Submerge as much as possible.
3. Optional step of making rice: In a pan*that fits inside your Instant Pot add 1 ½ cups long grain white rice and 2 ¼ cups water. Place a long legged trivet* into your Instant Pot and place the pan on top. 
4. Cover the Instant Pot and secure the lid. Make sure valve is set to sealing. Set the manual/pressure cook button to 5 minutes. When time is up let the pot sit for 5 minutes then move the valve to venting and remove the lid. If making rice, remove the rice pan and set it aside.
5. Turn your Instant Pot to the saute setting. In a small bowl stir together 3 Tbsp of cornstarch with 3 Tbsp of water, until smooth.Then pour the mixture into the Instant Pot. The cornstarch mixture will thicken up contents of pot quickly. Serve chicken and sauce with rice. Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.
