Sauce:
Combine the soy sauces, water, shaoxing wine, honey, garlic, ginger, and star anise together in a bowl.
Add the chicken drumsticks and carrots into the Instantpot. Pour in the sauce and star anise to mix.
Seal the lid and pressure cook on high for 10 minutes.
Allow a natural release for 10 minutes, then carefully release any remaining pressure.
Switch to sauté mode and simmer the sauce for 3 to 5 minutes until slightly thickened and glossy.
Serve hot over steamed rice. Garnish with green onions or a drizzle of sesame oil if desired.
