Instructions

In a 6-quart (6 l) electric pressure cooker, combine chicken, chicken broth and all teriyaki sauce ingredients. Stir well.

Close the pot and lock the lid. Set the machine to cook at high pressure. Set the timer to cook for 10 minutes.

Using the Natural Release method, bring pressure to normal. Carefully unlock and open the lid.

Using tongs, remove cooked chicken and transfer to a large plate. Set aside.

In a small mixing bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of teriyaki sauce, xanthan gum, and water. Stir well to form a thick paste.

Switch the instant pot to the sauté function. Add thickener to the cooker. Continue cooking and stirring, until the mixture combined and sauce is thickened.

Turn off the instant pot. Return cooked chicken to the pot and mix well to combine.

Serve with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.
