Recipe Summary Instant Pot&Reg; Shoyu Chicken

Shoyu is a term most people are not not familiar with, but it effectively means 'soy sauce.' After inquiring at a specialty grocer, I learned there are five different types of shoyu. For this recipe I used a low-sodium soy sauce. For this recipe I bought a pineapple and cut enough slices and then blended the pineapple chunks until I got enough liquid for 1/2 cup of juice.

Ingredients | Shoyu Tamago

½ pineapple, peeled and sliced, or as needed

1 cup low-sodium soy sauce

2 tablespoons brown sugar

1 piece fresh ginger root, minced

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into pieces

Directions

In a high-powered blender (such as Vitamix®), blend pineapple slices to create 1/2 cup pureed pineapple.

Combine 1/2 cup pureed pineapple, soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger, and garlic in a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Place chicken breast on top. Turn on Saute function and cook for about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cancel saute function. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 10 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.

Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
