Instant Pot Rice

My family loves this rice dish much that we make it a few times a week.  It works with just about anything you’d like to top I with and it’s also delicious on its own.  You can add meat to it if you’d like to make it more hearty.  Ground beef or shredded chicken both taste great with this rice!

Ingredients

3 tablespoons coconut oil

3 cups Jasmine or Basmati rice

1/2 onion, diced

2 tablespoons brown lentils (optional)

Garlic – 4 cloves, minced (or 2 tablespoons pre-minced garlic)

14 ounce can chicken broth

3/4 cup water

1 tablespoon Greek Seasoning (I use Cavender’s)

1 tablespoon oregano

Instructions

Set the Instant Pot to sauté and add coconut oil and rice. 

Sauté for a couple minutes, then add onions and lentils (if using).

After about a minute, add garlic and sauté for another minute.

Add chicken broth, water, and spices.

Set the Instant Pot to “Pressure Cook” for 4 minutes.

When finished cooking, let the Instant Pot natural release for 10 minutes, then quick release or let it natural release until fully depressurized.

Fluff rice and enjoy!
