• Place the lid on, set it to sealing, and pressure cook (manual button) for 4 minutes.
• When done, quick release the steam.
• Mix 1 tbsp of cornstarch with 1 tbsp of cold water to make a cornstarch slurry.
• Press the saute button and then add in the cornstarch slurry. Stir for 2-3 minutes or until the sauce has thickened to your liking. You can either stir your broccoli in at this time or at the end, place the broccoli in the pot, place the lid on, and let the residual steam cook the broccoli.

• To the measuring cup, add the bouillon and water OR broth. Whisk again.

• Turn your instant pot to saute mode.
• Spray with non-stick cooking oil. Add chicken to instant pot and let brown.
• Once there is some browning to the chicken, add the broth-marinade mixture. Give it a stir. I added my broccoli at this step, but if you like a crisper broccoli, save it until the end. Seal the instant pot making sure you have the vent in the sealed position. Turn instant pot to high pressure for 5 minutes, adding 2 minutes if you had frozen chicken (see note).
• Whisk together the corn starch and water to make a slurry.
• Manually release the pressure. Turn to saute mode. Add the slurry and the bok choy. Cook for another two minutes until bok choy is tender.

• Heat a large, 12-inch skillet over high heat until extremely hot, about 5 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon peanut oil and the chicken. Cook, stirring constantly, until meat is cooked through, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
• Add the remaining peanut oil to the skillet. Add the bok choy and cook 1 minute. Stir in the leeks and chili flakes; cook, tossing frequently until bok choy and leeks are tender, about 1 minute. Stir in the marinade and a pinch of salt. Move vegetable mixture to the border of the pan. Add remaining ginger and garlic to center of pan and cook, mashing lightly, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Return chicken to skillet and combine with ginger, garlic, and vegetables. Serve immediately, over rice.
