Set Deluxe Multi Cooker to SEAR/HIGH, 15 minutes. Add oil to pot, then add in chicken thighs skin-side down. Sear 4 minutes per side until golden, then sear the other side for three minutes. Sear chicken in batches as needed. Remove chicken from pot.
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Add the sliced garlic to the inner pot and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add chicken broth to inner pot, scraping any browned bits (fond) from the bottom of the pot; add in thyme sprigs.
Place the Deluxe Multi Cooker Steamer Basket inside the inner pot, then place the chicken inside the basket. Lock the lid, set to POULTRY, 12 minutes. Press button to start. Once timer goes off, allow pressure to release naturally.
Carefully remove chicken and basket. Remove thyme sprigs. Place back on SEAR.
Remove three tablespoons of the hot broth from the pot and add to the flour, whisking until smooth. Pour mixture into the pot, whisking constantly while mixture comes back to a simmer. Cook until gravy is slightly thickened, approximately 5-6 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Pour some of the gravy over the chicken and serve the rest on the side.
Notes
