Then carefully turn the vent to “venting” and release the remaining pressure (quick release).  Remove lid.

Transfer the cooked chicken to a separate plate and shred into bite-sized pieces with two forks.

Add the shredded chicken and coconut milk to the soup and stir gently until combined. Taste and season with salt, pepper, and/or additional curry paste as needed.
