Slice steak into bite size pieces. Turn the instant pot on "sauté" mode. Sauté steak bites with olive oil. Turn off "sauté" mode.
Pour in 2 tablespoons teriyaki and 1 tablespoon soy sauce. Toss with 1 tablespoon garlic. The liquid from the steak bites being sautéed along with the sauce is enough to bring it to pressure.
Set to high pressure for 15 minutes. Once the instant pot is done counting then quick release pressure. Drain off the liquid. Add in remaining soy sauce and teriyaki. Then toss with remaining garlic. Add in honey and stir well.
This can be done on sauté mode to keep the sauces warm. Serve!
Notes
Choose the Right Cut: Opt for a well-marbled and tender cut, like London Broil or sirloin, for the juiciest and flavorful steak bites.
Uniform Size for Even Cooking: Cut the steak into uniform bite-sized pieces to ensure even cooking. This prevents some pieces from being overcooked while others remain undercooked.
Use a Natural Release: After pressure cooking, allow the Instant Pot to release pressure naturally for a few minutes. This helps the steak bites remain juicy and tender, preventing them from drying out.
