Instant Pot Beef Teriyaki over Orzo Pasta

2 lbs Stew Meat, cut into 1-inch pieces

1 Onion, sliced

2 teaspoons garlic, minced

1 cup Teriyaki Sauce*

1/2 cup Beef Broth

1/4 cup Soy Sauce

Place the beef in a 6 quart electric pressure cooker.

Place the sliced onions on top and pour the teriyaki sauce and water over the top of the beef.

Seal the instant pot and cook on high pressure for 15 minutes.

After the cook time, allow the instant pot to sit for 15-20 minutes to gradually release the pressure from the instant pot. After this time, if the pressure vent is not all the way up, move the valve on the lid to the venting position and release all the remaining pressure from the instant pot.

If you would like a thicker sauce, combine 2 Tbsp of Cornstarch with 1/4 cup of water and stir this mixture into the instant pot while on the searing method. It must come to a boil to thicken.

Serve warm over rice. In this case, I used orzo pasta.

*I used Kikkoman Teriyaki Baste and Glaze because it is a thick sauce. Teriyaki marinade is watery. The sauce will still be a little thin from the juices in the meat. You decide if you want it thickened like I suggest.
