I love cooking with tahini. Tahini give this chicken dish lots of flavor. Quick and easy meals are a must during the week. I use my Instant Pot quite a bit. I eat alot of Instant Pot meals. My instant pot is used at least once a week in my home. I work long hours and it makes my life easier. This Instant Pot recipe takes only a few ingredients and is delicious. What recipes do you prepare using tahini and your Instant Pot?
