We’re back with the next instalment in my Instant Pot recipes: Instant Pot Teriyaki Chicken and Rice!
If you’ve been following along, you know that we started pretty basic, with things like How to Cook Frozen Chicken Breasts in the Instant Pot, Juicy Instant Pot Chicken Breasts, and Instant Pot Shredded Chicken, but things are starting to get exciting here.
This is one of those recipes that I was pretty sure was going to be a big fail, but when I pulled off that lid I was pleasantly surprised! I couldn’t believe that it cooked up so nicely and I didn’t even get one of those nasty “burn” warnings (you better believe it’s happened before!).
The sauce in this Instant Pot Teriyaki Chicken and Rice adds great flavor, the chicken is incredibly moist and dinner is ready in about half an hour (mostly hands off!).

I wanted to try this in the pressure cooker because of how much we all love this One Pot Teriyaki Chicken, Rice and Vegetables has been here on The Recipe Rebel. It’s a quick meal that’s loaded with protein and veggies!
It’s also one my kids will eat enthusiastically, so it’s a winner around here for sure.
Tips and Tricks for Making this Instant Pot Teriyaki Chicken and Rice:
- I use boneless, skinless chicken breasts for a lean, healthy meal, but boneless, skinless chicken thighs would work great, too! You don’t need to add any extra cook time.
- If you want to make this a vegetarian meal, simply omit the chicken and bump up the veg.
- If you want to make this a gluten-free meal, simply read all of your ingredients carefully to be sure there are no issues, as all of the ingredients themselves are gluten-free.
- I don’t recommend using any other rice for this recipe, as they all require different amounts of liquid and cook time. This recipe was originally written using brown rice, but I have since updated it to use long grain white rice as it cooks in the same amount of time as the chicken and is more foolproof!

Calories 451cal
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts (cut into small cubes)
- 1 ½ cups low sodium chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 2 teaspoons minced ginger
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon red pepper flakes (omit if you don't like any heat)
- 1 ½ cups long grain white rice (rinsed well)
- 1 bell pepper chopped
- 1 cup frozen peas and carrots thawed
US Customary – Metric
Instructions
Turn Instant Pot to saute and wait until it reads "hot". Add the oil to the Instant Pot and allow a couple minutes for it to heat up.
Add the chicken and cook just until lightly browned on the outside, 2-3 minutes. Do not cook too long or it will be tough.
Add the chicken broth and use a wooden spoon to scrape the bottom and remove any stuck on bits on the bottom.
Add hoisin sauce, soy sauce, honey, vinegar, garlic, ginger, salt and pepper flakes if using. Stir well.
Stir in the rice (be sure to rinse it well first!), peppers and peas and carrots.
Put the lid on, set the valve to sealing, and select Manual or Pressure Cook for a cook time of 3 minutes. It will take about 10 minutes to come to pressure and begin counting down.
When the cook time is up, allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes, then open the valve to release any remaining pressure. Stir and serve.
Notes
*1 serving is approximately 1 cup

Worked well for us, minus the veggies-I would that or heat then add. I did 3c rice to about 3.5 c liquid. I would make again but maybe only need 1min so chicken isn’t quite as dry! Great quick 1 pot meal!

Can this recipe be doubled and does the cooking time need to be adjusted? Thank You

The Recipe Rebel says
Hi Nadia! You should be able to double it, it would just depend on the the size of your instant pot. You want to make sure everything fits. You shouldn’t need to adjust the cooking time. Enjoy!

Hello, I’m currently making this with brown rice instead of jasmine rice and I upped the cook time from 3 minutes to 15 since brown rice takes longer.. hopefully it works out! Will keep posted

Let me know how it goes, Patricia!
Jill says
My family didn’t like this recipe the rice seemed soggy.

The Recipe Rebel says
Sorry to hear that you had trouble with the recipe, Jill. The amounts, flavorings and timing have worked well for myself (and others) so I wished it would have been a hit for you too! I know it can be so disappointing to try a new recipe and it does not turn out for you.

I tried this for the first time tonight and got the dang burn notice! 😩😩 I followed the recipe exactly with the exception of using jasmine rice instead of long grain white. It smells so stinking yummy! I have it in a pan to finish up the cooking now. ☹️

The Recipe Rebel says
Hi Cherie! I’m sorry to hear you had trouble with the recipe but burn notices are normally caused by the Instant Pot and not necessarily the recipe. I’ve even updated it to help users not get the burn notice. Which size Instant Pot did you use? Did you scrap all of the bits off the bottom after sautéing the chicken? Was there any steam escaping as it was coming up to pressure. All of these things can make a difference.

I make this all the time. I double it and I have dinner for 3 days for me and the wifey. I don’t measure with the sauces and it always comes out tasty. I also add onions or shallots plus corn. its great

Can I double this recipe? I have 6 to feed.

The Recipe Rebel says
Hi Jamie, you should be able to double it but it will likely depend on the size of your instant pot. You want to make sure you don’t go past the fill line.

Do you need to adjust the cook time with doubling the recipe ?

Hi Kelli! you should be able to double it but it will likely depend on the size of your instant pot. You want to make sure you don’t go past the fill line.
Patty says
I have made your original recipe for this many times. I’m just now seeing the updates. Is the 3 minute cook time enough now that it is changed to white rice?

The Recipe Rebel says
Hi Patty! Yes it works just as great! Thanks!

Didn’t work for me. The rice came out crunchy.
