Chicken thighs in IP?

[TwoBees]

I have a slow cooker recipe I would like to covert to use in the IP. Any idea if this will work and if I will need to modify it at all? Do I need to increase the liquid?
I have chicken thighs instead of drumsticks.

2 1/2 - 3 Pounds chicken drumsticks
1/2 Cup ketchup
1/4 Cup water
1/4 Cup brown sugar, packed
1 envelope onion soup mix

Arrange chicken in slow cooker, combiner remaining ingredients, pour over chicken. Cover and cook on HIGH for 4-5 hours or on LOW for 7-8 hours.

I think it should work. I think technically the Instant Pot is supposed to have 1 c of liquid to come to pressure but I've cooked recipes with a bit less. If you wanted to be certain you could up the water to 1/2 c but I'd chance it as is.

I'd increase the water to 1/2 cup and cook on high for 8 minutes. I always cook my thighs in the IP for 8 minutes. Do a natural, not quick, release.

Thank you both! I took your suggestions and the chicken came out really well.
