First, add sesame oil, garlic and ginger into the instant pot. Then, add the washed chicken wings. I used 1.5 pounds. However, you can add more chicken wings. Also, the chicken wings do not need to be thaw before cooking, you can just add the frozen chicken wings. After that, add the chicken wings into the pressure cooker and the sauce mixture.
