PIN the Instant Pot Teriyaki Chicken recipe to try it later!

Instant Pot Teriyaki Chicken is a recipe that was inspired by some cooking experiences from my past! Years ago I learned to make Teriyaki Chicken from a friend who had lived in Hawaii and gotten the recipe there. And that Teriyaki Chicken recipe was delicious (but loaded with sugar) so in the early days of the blog I adapted it into a version of Baked Teriyaki Chicken that was Sugar-Free, replacing the sugar with a low-carb Sweetener.

Kara and I looked at recipes around the web when we decided to try making this favorite chicken dish in the Instant Pot. But it was the perfect easy 5-ingredient sugar-free sauce from that earlier recipe that mostly inspired the Instant Pot Teriyaki Chicken we came up with!

This flavorful chicken only needs four minutes under pressure; then we removed the strips of chicken and broke it apart into chunks while we simmered the sauce. We did thicken the sauce with a teeny-tiny bit of cornstarch, but this is still very low in carbs! If you like Teriyaki flavors, I hope you try it soon.

PIN Green Chile Chicken Tacos to try them later!

These Green Chile Chicken Tacos are going to be perfect for Cinco de Mayo, and Kara and I really enjoyed this when we worked on the recipe! We loved the spicy green chile chicken, the slightly-spicy slaw with chopped Poblano peppers, and the squeeze of lime we added at the table. And when Kara took leftovers home, her family devoured the tacos too.

And I’m happy to have both an Instant Pot and a Slow Cooker version of this recipe. The tacos were originally inspired by my love of Hatch Green Chile Enchilada Sauce, something I’ve used often since I first tried it. Any recipe with that sauce is going to be something I’ll enjoy! And recently I discovered that my original nutrition calculator sometimes was not accurate for low-carb tortillas, and I’m happy to say these tacos are even lower in carbs than I thought, see more below about that.

Either version of Green Chile Chicken Tacos will be tasty, and even the slow cooker method only takes a little over three hours to cook. So this is pretty easy for a chicken taco dinner no matter which method you choose! I hope you enjoy trying it.

PIN the Instant Pot Corned Beef Recipe so you can make it later!

I think Instant Pot Corned Beef is a perfect dinner idea for anyone who loves corned beef. It’s something I make every year for St. Patrick’s Day, and always enjoy it. And I love it so much eaten with the with the creamy horseradish sauce that’s featured in this recipe, and I’d make it any time of year for a tasty dinner!

I’ve also enjoyed corned beef cooked in the Slow Cooker many times, and that method is great too. But using the Instant Pot produced the most tender corned beef I’ve ever made and this easy method will make St. Patrick’s Day dinner easier to get on the table!

If you haven’t tried Instant Pot Corned Beef yet, I bet you’re going to love it. And I’m reminding you about this recipe well before St. Patrick’s Day. I hope this will encourage you to pick up some corned beef for the big holiday coming up!

PIN Instant Pot Buffalo Chicken Soup to try it later!

Instant Pot Buffalo Chicken Soup is one of my favorite soup recipes, and this is warm and comforting if it’s cold where you are! This is a soup  for people who love the strong flavors of Frank’s Red Hot Sauce and crumbled blue cheese!

If you like hot spicy Buffalo Wings dipped into blue cheese, or any other variation of those Buffalo Chicken flavors, you’re probably going to love this creamy Buffalo Chicken Soup. It did take me a couple of tries testing variations with Jake and Kara to come up with a version of this soup we thought was a total winner. But we loved the final version!

And then after I uploaded the photos, I wished we had ground up the thyme when we added it to the soup. But I decided the flecks of thyme add character to the soup (and the thyme does add wonderful flavor!) So for all the fellow Buffalo Chicken fans, hope you enjoy this soup!

PIN the Turkey Rice Soup to try it later!

Turkey Rice Soup is a new Instant Pot recipe that’s an updated version of a soup recipe that’s been moved to the archives on the blog. I’m having fun improving some of my older recipes, and the older version of this soup was made on the stove, had chopped leftover turkey and wild rice, and was much higher in carbs than this version with turkey and cauliflower rice. 

And I think turkey soup is too tasty to only make at Thanksgiving, so this delicious new Turkey and Rice soup uses ground turkey (or leftover turkey), chopped cabbage, chicken stock with some turkey soup base for added flavor, and frozen cauliflower rice. You can enjoy this tasty soup all winter long!

Kara and I absolutely loved this when we tested the recipe, and I enjoyed it again when I pulled a container out of the freezer for a quick dinner. And please eat this soup with coarsely grated Parmesan cheese if you possibly can! I hope you try the recipe soon.

PIN the recipe for Instant Pot Salsa Pork Chops to try them later!

These Instant Pot Salsa Pork Chops are such an easy and tasty dinner idea! I’m guessing everyone who likes pork chops will love this simple recipe where you brown seasoned pork chops, put them in the Instant Pot with low-sugar salsa and lime juice, and cook under pressure for just 2 minutes. Then remove pork chops to a baking dish, spoon over the liquid from the Instant Pot, sprinkle with cheese, and broil just until the cheese is melted.

Doesn’t that sound delicious for a quick dinner? We browned the pork chops in a pan on the stove for the best browning, but you can brown them in batches in the Instant Pot if you prefer. And if your family likes pork chops, I hope you’ll try this tasty way to cook them.

I ate one of my leftover pork chops for breakfast the next day, that’s how good they were! And if you’re not such a fan of the Instant Pot, you can make these tasty salsa pork chops in the Slow Cooker!

Chicken Pesto Soup is a recipe I came up with when I was experimenting with a chicken soup with cauliflower rice! And I do know how people love chicken with pesto. So knowing the popularity of that combination probably influenced the impulse to add pesto to this tasty soup.

This is also a pretty mild chili, so kids or people who don’t like spicy chili will enjoy this recipe. And if you’re not an Instant Pot user, I’ll give you directions for making ground beef chili on the stove as well.

This recipe has ground beef, onions, red bell peppers, garlic, cumin, chili powder, dried cilantro (or not), canned green chiles, beef stock, crushed tomatoes, and black olives! All those flavorful ingredients cook in the Instant Pot or simmer on the stove. Then when the chili is done I add lime juice and serve with plenty of grated cheese and sour cream cream.
