Tips & Tricks (5)

Cornstarch Coating Magic 🥄
Dust chicken thighs lightly with cornstarch before cooking to create a crispy exterior and help the teriyaki sauce adhere perfectly.
Instant Pot Liquid Balance 💧
Always add at least 1/2 cup of liquid to your Instant Pot to create proper steam pressure and prevent burning.
Flavor Layering Technique 🧄
Toast your garlic and ginger paste briefly before adding other liquids to unlock deeper, more complex flavor profiles in your teriyaki sauce.
Sauce Reduction Trick 🍯
After cooking, use the Instant Pot's sauté function to quickly reduce and thicken the teriyaki sauce, concentrating its flavors.
Bread Toasting Pro Tip 🥖
Lightly butter and toast your sandwich bread before assembling to prevent sogginess and add a delicious crispy texture.
