Tips:
- Choose the right chicken: Boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts are best for this recipe, as they are less likely to dry out in the pressure cooker.
- Marinate the chicken: Marinating the chicken in the teriyaki sauce for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, will help to infuse it with flavor.
- Use a good quality teriyaki sauce: A good quality teriyaki sauce will make a big difference in the flavor of the chicken. Look for a sauce that is thick and flavorful, with a balance of sweet and savory flavors.
- Don't overcrowd the pressure cooker: Make sure to not overcrowd the pressure cooker, as this can prevent the chicken from cooking evenly.
- Cook the chicken on high pressure: Cook the chicken on high pressure for 10-12 minutes, or until it is cooked through. The chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the pressure release naturally: After the cooking time is complete, let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes, then quick release the remaining pressure.
- Thicken the sauce: If the sauce is too thin, you can thicken it by adding a cornstarch slurry. To make a cornstarch slurry, whisk together equal parts cornstarch and water until smooth. Then, add the slurry to the sauce and bring to a simmer, stirring constantly. The sauce will thicken as it simmers.
Conclusion:
Pressure cooker teriyaki chicken is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. The chicken is tender and flavorful, and the sauce is perfectly balanced between sweet and savory. Serve the chicken with rice, noodles, or vegetables for a complete meal.
