I just finished dinner and made this for the first time. It was SOOO delicious! I have sliced up chuck roast in my freezer that I needed to use up and found your recipe doing a search. I did make a couple adjustments for my own taste. I only did half the brown sugar and I added 2t of grated ginger that I keep in the freezer. So good! My 3 year old ate it and we finally got him to try broccoli!! Yah!

No matter how many times I make this – whether with beef or chicken – it always blows me away because it is always so perfect and even more delish than I had remembered. Thank you for a fab recipe that never lets me down.

In reply to Stella. Sorry - that's frustrating. Yes, always add thickeners at the end.

I know this will be delicious if I ever get it cooked! I foolishly added the cornstarch slurry with everything else – BEFORE pressure cooking it. 😭
What a mess. Burn notice city.
I just keep adding water and scraping the bottom.
Next time I’ll know better. The worst part is, as I was pouring it in I thought hmmm .. I would’ve added this at the end. DUH
Anyway, thanks for the great recipe.

In reply to Jenny. Hi Jenny - glad you enjoyed it! It sounds like you lost more liquid while it cooked than typical not because you didn't use the sesame oil. Did you see steam around the edges of the lid?

This was delicious!!!! I did get a food burn notice when cooking the sauce with the beef and onions, is it because I didn’t use the sesame oil? The sauce was so thick that i didn’t even need to use the cornstarch

In reply to Laurie Lavalley. No, you can skip the browning step when subbing chicken.

In reply to Barbara Schieving. Would you still sauté the chicken first?
