Directions

Instructions
In a bowl, mix the sauce ingredients: water, soy, honey, brown sugar, rice wine vinegar, garlic, ginger, and onion until combined

Pour sauce in the instant pot

Add chicken drumsticks and push them down so they are submerged in the sauce (they don't have to be completely covered in the sauce)

Cook on high pressure for 10 minutes (MANUAL 10 MINUTES)

Let the drumsticks cool for 5 minutes before releasing the steam (Natural Pressure Release 5 min NPR)

Release the steam and hit the saute button so the sauce boils and starts reducing

Remove the drumsticks and place them on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper

Broil the chicken drumsticks for 2 minutes on each side (or more if you'd like). Meanwhile, leave the sauce on the instant pot so it keeps reducing

Remove from the oven and place the chicken drumsticks on a platter. Pour sauce over and serve.
