5 Ingredient Instant Pot Cheesy Chicken Broccoli And Rice Recipes

INSTANT POT CHEESY BROCCOLI CHICKEN AND RICE RECIPE

Steps:

• Add onion, garlic, rice, chicken broth, salt, and cooked chicken into the bottom of your Instant Pot.
• Seal lid and turn valve to SEALING. Set MANUAL and set timer to 7 minutes.
• Once time is up, turn the knob to VENTING to let the pressure out (a quick release).
• While the pressure is being released, steam your broccoli in the microwave for 4-5 minutes or on the stove top (or follow directions on the frozen broccoli package if using frozen).
• Stir in the broccoli and cheddar cheese.
• Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Dish onto plates or bowls and top with more shredded cheese, if desired.

INSTANT POT CHEESY CHICKEN AND RICE RECIPE

Steps:

• Cut chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces.
• Press "saute" button on Instant Pot and let pot heat up. Add in olive oil to pot, then add in chicken, salt, pepper, onion, and garlic. Saute over heat until onions become translucent and chicken starts to brown (5-6 minutes).
• Add rice and cook for 1-2 minutes more; just until rice starts to turn golden brown.
• Add in chicken broth and water. If you have the burn notice on your IP, you will want to deglaze the bottom of your Instant Pot at this time to prevent that from happening. Place lid on Instant Pot. Press "manual" button and set timer for 8 minutes.
• Once cooking time is complete, switch the valve on top to "venting" (i.e. a quick release).
• Remove lid and add in soup, shredded cheese, and frozen vegetables. Mix everything together until cheese is melted and vegetables are warmed (if you need to turn it on saute to help the vegetables cook, you can do that. Just be sure to stir continuously so that it doesn't burn).
