Ingredients

4 servings

2 tablespoons oil
1 small onion (quartered)
2 lbs . (1kg) skinless and boneless chicken breast (or chicken thighs, cut into cubes)
2 tablespoons Thai red curry paste (Mae Ploy brand)
1 red bell pepper (cut into thick strips)
6 slices galangal (optional)
6 kaffir lime leaves (torn and bruised, optional)
3 cups chicken broth
2 tablespoons fish sauce (or salt to taste)
1 tablespoon sugar
3/4 cup coconut milk
2 1/2 tablespoons lime juice
Cilantro leaves

Steps

Turn on the Saute mode on your Instant Pot. Add the onion and sauté for 10 seconds before adding the chicken. Continue sautéing the chicken until the surface turns white.
Add the Thai curry paste, bell peppers, galangal, and kaffir lime leaves (if using), and stir to mix well. Pour in the chicken broth, fish sauce, and sugar. Cover the pot and select High pressure for 6 minutes.
When the Instant Pot beeps, turn the valve to Quick Release. Once the valve drops, carefully remove the lid. Add the coconut milk and lime juice to the soup and stir to combine well. Top with cilantro and serve immediately.
