For this pressure cooker teriyaki chicken recipe, I combined other teriyaki recipes to create a yummy version for my favorite cooker, my electric pressure cooker. I used a mix of boneless, skinless thighs and chicken tenders. Serve it with spaghetti or rice noodles and broccoli—yum!

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

  • 1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple

  • 1 cup chicken stock

  • ¾ cup brown sugar

  • ¾ cup reduced-sodium soy sauce

  • ¼ cup apple cider vinegar

  • 2 tablespoons ground ginger

  • 2 tablespoons garlic powder

  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs

  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch (Optional)

  • 2 tablespoons cold water (Optional)

Directions

  1. Combine pineapple, chicken stock, brown sugar, soy sauce, cider vinegar, ginger, garlic powder, and black pepper in a bowl; stir until brown sugar is dissolved. Place chicken thighs in a pressure cooker; gently stir in pineapple sauce to coat.

  2. Close cooker securely and place pressure regulator over vent according to the manufacturer's instructions. Bring the pressure cooker up to high pressure over high heat, (steam will escape in a steady flow and make a whistling sound), then reduce the heat to low until regulator is gently rocking, maintaining high pressure. Cook for 20 minutes.

  3. Stir cornstarch into cold water; set aside.

  4. Release pressure using the quick-release method according to the manufacturer's instructions. Unlock and remove the lid. Transfer chicken to a serving dish using a slotted spoon; cover with aluminum foil and set aside. Whisk cornstarch mixture into sauce, bring to a boil, and cook, stirring frequently, until sauce has thickened, about 3 minutes. Serve chicken topped with teriyaki sauce.

Cook's Note:

I use a mix of boneless skinless chicken thighs and chicken tenders.
