Description

A simple, hearty meal combining tender chicken, flavorful mushrooms, and fluffy rice, all cooked together in one pot.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound chicken breast, diced
  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 cup rice
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon thyme (optional)

Instructions

  1. Set the Instant Pot to sauté mode and add olive oil. Let it heat for a minute.

  3. Add diced chicken and brown evenly for about 5 minutes.
  4. Stir in sliced mushrooms, rice, chicken broth, salt, pepper, and thyme. Close the lid and set to manual high pressure for 10 minutes.
