IP Teriyaki Chicken

Ingredients

•  1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts— about 3 medium breasts (see blog post above for tips on using chicken thighs or frozen chicken)
•  2/3 cup low-sodium soy sauce
•  1/3 cup water
•  3 tablespoons rice vinegar
•  3 tablespoons honey
•  3 tablespoons brown sugar
•  2 cloves garlic — minced
•  2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
•  3 tablespoons cornstarch — stirred together with 1/4 cup water to create a slurry

Double the sauce!!

Instructions

1. Lightly coat the bottom of a 6-quart Instant Pot with nonstick spray. Arrange the chicken breasts in the bottom. (I slice up the semi-frozen chicken)
2. In a medium-size bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, water, rice vinegar, honey, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger. Pour over the chicken.
3. Close and seal the Instant Pot. Cook on HIGH (manual) pressure for 10 minutes. Let the pressure release naturally for 5 minutes, then immediately vent to release the remaining pressure. Carefully open the lid. Turn the Instant Pot OFF. Transfer the chicken to a plate and let it cool a few minutes. 
4. Turn the Instant Pot to SAUTE. Once the liquid begins to simmer, slowly whisk in the cornstarch slurry. Continue whisking to ensure the sauce is smooth and does not have any lumps. Continue to cook and whisk until the sauce thickens, about 1 to 2 minutes.
5. Turn the Instant Pot OFF. Add the chicken back to the pot and toss to coat in the sauce. Serve hot with prepared rice and a sprinkle of green onions and sesame seeds.
