If you received an instant pot for Christmas here is a simple recipe for you to make with your new gift and one of our favorites…

Teriyaki beef!

I wanted to make a recipe that my daughter in college could throw together in a few minutes and have a yummy meal.

We bought her the additional ceramic insert so she can cook rice or other veggies at the same time as meat in her pressure cooker to make it more efficient. 

If you wanted to you could make this recipe with chicken or pork as well instead of beef. You can also add veggies if you want to!

What Do I Need To Make This Recipe?

You will need an Instant Pot or Pressure Cooker. 

Also: 2 pounds of sliced beef, pork, or chicken. I used a strip roast that I cut into thin slices.

1 cup of water

5 TBSP of packed brown sugar. Or less- I like mine less sweet but my family likes it sweeter. So the decision is yours 

1 large garlic clove minced.

1/2 tsp grated ginger or powdered ginger.

2 tsp honey.

2 TBSP cornstarch.

1/4 cup water.

1 cup of water and 1 cup of rice if you want to make it in the ceramic pot. As well as any veggies you would like to add.

DO NOT add the cornstarch and 1/4 cup of water in the beginning when you put the ingredients into the pressure cooker on sauté. You are going to make a slurry to thicken the sauce with them. A slurry is a mixture of a thickener like cornstarch or flour and a liquid like water that gets whisked together and added to thicken a dish.

Here’s what to do with the ingredients:

Turn your pressure cooker or instant pot on to saute mode. This allows you to bring the liquid to a boil and make your sauce. I love this setting for browning or precooking meat in the Instant Pot.

Add all of the ingredients except the 1/4 cup of water and 2 TBSP of cornstarch. Whisk it all together. Continue to stir occasionally until the temperature comes up and it is getting thick.

Once it is thick, turn the pot off. Add your meat and stir it to coat the meat in the sauce. If you want to add veggies you can do it now.

If you want to make rice in the ceramic cooker, put the stand into the meat. Add 1 cup of rice and 1 cup of water into the ceramic cooker and put the silicon lid on top. Put it in the metal lifting rack. Place into the pressure cooker.

Put the lid on and turn it on to manual pressure mode. Set the time for 20 minutes.

Make sure it is pressurized correctly and then wait for your food to be done.

Super easy and delicious!

Directions

  Add to the pot and whisk to combine.   This will make it nice and thick.
  Turn your pot off once it is thick.

  If you are making rice in the ceramic cooker insert, put the metal stand on top of the meat. 
  Put the rice and 1 cup of water in the ceramic insert.  Put the silicone lid on. Put the ceramic cooker in the metal lifting rack.  Place all inside the Instant Pot. 
  Put the Instant Pot lid on and seal it. 
  Turn your Instant Pot on the manual setting.  Change the time to 20 minutes.  
  Make sure it pressurizes correctly.  Now you have time to do whatever you need to do! 
  Once your Instant Pot is finished cooking, carefully release the pressure using an oven mitt or towel so you don’t burn yourself.  
  Open the lid and Dinner is READY!
