Chicken Teriyaki Meatballs

By:

Ingredients
  • 1 1/4 lbs ground chicken
  • 2 tbsp snipped chives
  • 2 tbsp grated ginger
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/2 lb snow peas
  • 1 cup frozen shelled edamame
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 1/2 cups rice
Instructions
  • In a large bowl, combine chicken, chives, and ginger. Form 16 meatballs.
  • Add oil to the Instant Pot. Using the display panel select the SAUTE function.
  • When oil gets hot, brown the meatballs, 2 - 3 minuteS per side. Meat will not be cooked through. Do not crowd the pot--you may have to work in batches. Transfer browned meat to a shallow dish and cover loosely with foil.
  • In a small bowl mix soy sauce and brown sugar. Add soy sauce mixture to the pot and deglaze by using a wooden spoon to scrape the brown bits from the bottom of the pot.
  • Put all meatballs back into to the pot and roll gently to coat.
  • Turn the pot off by selecting CANCEL , then secure the lid, making sure the vent is closed.
  • Using the display panel select the MANUAL or PRESSURE COOK function*. Use the +/- keys and program the Instant Pot for 7 minutes.
  • When the time is up, then quick-release the pressure.
  • Divide rice amongst serving bowls. Top with meatballs.
  • Add the snow peas and edamame to the pot and toss to coat. Close the pot and allow the residual heat to cook the vegetables, about 3 minutes.
  • (Optional) In a small bowl mix together 1/4 cup of pot liquid and cornstarch. Stir into the pot until thickened.
  • Serve vegetables and sauce over meatballs
Notes
  • *The MANUAL and PRESSURE COOK buttons are interchangeable.
