Servings: 6
Cost: $5.99, $1.00 per Serving
Ingredients
- 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into bite-size pieces
- ½ cup teriyaki sauce
- 1 cup chicken broth or bourbon
- 2 Tablespoon honey
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoon minced garlic
- 2 Tablespoon dried minced onions
- ⅛ teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 Tablespoon corn starch
- 1 Tablespoon water
Instructions
- Spray the insert of a 6-quart Instant Pot with nonstick cooking spray.
- Add the bite-size chicken pieces to the Instant Pot and spread them into an even layer.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the teriyaki sauce, chicken broth (or bourbon), honey, brown sugar, minced garlic, dried minced onion, and ground ginger.
- Pour the sauce evenly over the chicken.
- Secure the lid and set the valve to the Sealing position. Cook on High Pressure for 15 minutes.
- When the cook time is complete, carefully perform a quick release. Remove the lid and stir the chicken.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water until smooth. Stir the slurry into the Instant Pot.
- Turn the Instant Pot to the Sauté setting and cook, stirring frequently, for 2–4 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.
- Serve the teriyaki chicken over cooked white rice and spoon the extra sauce over the top.
Notes
- Chicken thighs can be substituted for chicken breasts with the same cook time.
- If using bourbon instead of chicken broth, the alcohol will cook off during the pressure cooking and sauté steps, leaving a deeper flavor.
- Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds for extra flavor and presentation.
