Recipe Tips

To make this recipe even more flavorful, you can sauté the chicken in some olive oil before adding it to the Instant Pot. This will give it a nice golden crust and add some extra depth to the dish. You can also top the chicken and rice with some chopped fresh parsley or green onions for a pop of color and freshness. Finally, you can use leftover chicken or turkey in this recipe instead of fresh chicken breast. This is a great way to repurpose leftovers and create a new and delicious meal.
