Instructions
Combine brown sugar, ketchup, teriyaki sauce, garlic, black pepper, and sriracha in a bowl. Pour over the chicken breasts and stir to combine. Add the chicken with sauce to your Instant Pot. Set to Sealing and pressure cook on high for 15 minutes. Add 2 bags of boil in a bag white rice to a pot on the stove, or microwave following directions on box. When the chicken is finished cooking, do a quick release. Remove chicken and add to plate then turn your Instant Pot on Saute setting. If your sauce is too thin, take ¼ cup of water and add 3 tbsp cornstarch, stir into a slurry. Add the slurry to the Instant Pot and cook until it thickens. Cube the cooked chicken or you can serve the chicken breast whole. Serve over rice, sprinkle with sesame seeds and chives.
Recipe Notes
To make this a freezer meal:
Combine the marinade and chicken together in a gallon size Ziplock bag. This will keep in the freezer for 3 months. When you’re ready to make it, thaw the bag overnight in the fridge and then continue the steps above for preparation in the Instant Pot.
