Instant Pot Teriyaki Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Mix soy sauce, water, brown sugar, rice wine vinegar, mirin, sake, garlic, and pepper in a bowl to make a sauce.
• Place chicken in an electric pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Pour sauce over chicken. Close and lock the lid. Select Meat function; set timer for 12 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove lid. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the chicken should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C); if not, cook chicken for another 2 to 4 minutes.
• Remove chicken from the pot and cut up or shred. Mix with the sauce from the pot.

Steps:

• Add 1 1/4 cups water and the rice to a 6- or 8-quart Instant Pot®. Place the broccoli on top of the rice. Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 5 minutes (see Cook's Note).
• After the pressure-cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for natural release. After 10 minutes, being careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid. Gently scoop out the broccoli and rice into a medium bowl, cover with plastic wrap and set aside until ready to serve.
• Add the oil, garlic, scallion whites and ginger to the same pot (there is no need to rinse the pot out). Set to high saute for 4 minutes and cook until softened, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon. Add the broth, soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, salt and black pepper, scraping the browned bits from the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon.
• Add the chicken breasts. Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 6 minutes (for a 6-ounce chicken breast) to 8 minutes (for an 8-ounce breast). After the pressure-cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for natural release. After 10 minutes, being careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board using tongs and slice crosswise.
• In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch with 2 teaspoons cold water and add to the sauce in the pot. Set to high saute for 4 minutes. Continuously whisk until the teriyaki sauce is thickened.
• Drizzle the sauce over the sliced chicken and serve with the cooked rice and broccoli.

Steps:

• Add the sesame oil to a 6-quart Instant Pot®. Add the chicken and stir until evenly coated. Add the broccoli, water chestnuts, rice, garlic and onion and mix until combined. Pour the chicken broth and teriyaki sauce over the rice mixture and stir until evenly coated.
• Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 5 minutes (see Cook's Note).
• After the pressure-cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for quick release and wait until the quick-release cycle is complete. Being careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid.
• Fluff the cooked rice and stir in the edamame if using. Put the lid back on and allow the rice to steam until the liquid is absorbed, about 10 minutes more.
• Serve the chicken and broccoli dinner topped with the sesame seeds and cilantro leaves, if using, and lime wedges on the side.

Steps:

• Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Pour in olive oil and warm until hot. Add chicken thighs and brown on both sides, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
• Meanwhile, combine brown sugar, soy sauce, honey, apple cider vinegar, ginger, and garlic in a bowl for the marinade. Pour marinade over chicken thighs in the pot and bring to a simmer; cook for 2 minutes and scrape browned bits off bottom of pot. Turn off Saute mode. Close and lock the lid.
• Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 10 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 10 to 40 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
• Stir cold water and cornstarch together in a small bowl. Remove chicken thighs from Instant Pot® and transfer to a plate.
• Select Saute function. Pour cornstarch mixture into the remaining sauce in the pot. Cook until sauce has thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn off Saute mode. Pour some of the sauce over teriyaki thighs and serve.
