Ingredients
Keto Version (skip for original chicken teriyaki):
- 1 cup teriyaki coconut aminos
- 1 tsp garlic powder
For the Teriyaki Sauce (see notes for keto swaps):
- 1 cup water
- 5 tablespoons packed brown sugar skip for keto
- ¼ cup soy sauce*
- 1 –2 tablespoons honey skip for keto
- 1 large clove of garlic finely minced
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch**
- ¼ cup cold water***
For the Chicken Teriyaki:
- 1 lb chicken breasts cubed into 1" bites
- ¼ cup chicken broth
- 8 oz broccoli crowns
- 2 tsp sesame seeds to garnish
- ¼ cup minced green onion to garnish
Instructions
For the Teriyaki Sauce:
- Combine 1 cup water, sugar, soy sauce, honey, garlic, and ginger in a medium saucepan and heat on medium.
- In a small bowl, combine cornstarch with the cold water and whisk vigorously until dissolved. Don’t skip this step and just dump in cornstarch – it will clump and won’t mix properly.
- Add the cornstarch mixture to the saucepan.
- Heat the sauce until it thickens to your desired thickness.
- Thin out too thick sauce by adding more water to it slowly.
- When mixed, set aside.
For the Chicken Teriyaki:
- Heat the Instant Pot in sauté mode.
- Add 1 tablespoon of oil and brown the chicken, about 3 - 5 minutes per side.
- Deglaze the pot by adding in chicken broth.
- Use a wooden spoon to scrape up the bits stuck to the bottom of the pan – this step is essential to pressure cooking, the Instant Pot won’t seal if you have burnt bits on the bottom of the pan!
- Add seasonings, teriyaki sauce, broccoli, and sesame seeds.
- Stir briefly to combine.
- Select “High Pressure” for a cook time of 6 minutes.
- When cook time ends, allow a natural release for 10 minutes.
- Release pressure and open the lid.
- Take care to never have your face near the steam vent, and beware hot steam even with the extra time from natural release.
- Turn off Instant Pot, unplug, and serve over rice or cauliflower rice!

Notes
- *swap with teriyaki coconut aminos for keto
- **swap with 2 tbsp ground flax seeds for keto
- ***for keto version, add this water in with sauce at beginning, as flax doesn't have to mix with water first to thicken like cornstarch does
