Today I am sharing an easy and delicious Instant Pot Chicken Teriyaki Recipe. If you also jumped on the Instant Pot bandwagon and got yourself one or received one from Christmas then this recipe is a must try.
I ended up getting an Instant Pot on sale during Black Friday last year and it was a great investment. So far I have been using it lots and making lots of healthy meals for our family. I have also been buying less canned items and pre-made bottled sauces and making my own from scratch.
I love that the Instant Pot allows me to make one pot meals with less mess to clean after and things are cooked fast. I can start dinner a bit later in the evening and often within 30 minutes I have a delicious and healthy meal on the table.
This Insta Pot Teriyaki Chicken is full of flavour and the chicken comes out tender and delicious. Full recipe below.

- half a cup of green onion, sliced
- 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds, for garnish (optional)
- Teriyaki Sauce
- 1 cup water

Instructions
1. Combine all teriyaki sauce ingredients in a small bowl and set aside. Don't mix the cornstarch and water yet.

5. Turn on the Instant Pot and select sauté mode, mix well for a few minutes, add water if too thick.

Haven’t had teriyaki in so long! This is great, makes me want an instant pot to make it.

I wish I got the Instant Pot! My husband loves teriyaki chicken and this method sounds like such a healthy and convenient way to prepare dinner (I usually resort to a pre-made teriyaki chicken sauce and make stir fry)!
This is my kind of food, unfortunately I don’t have an Instant Pot but I do have 2 pressure cookers so I’ll simply use one of those, that should work too.
