No ratings yet

Ingredients 

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 cups white long grain rice
  • 14.5 ounces chicken broth
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Serve with diced parsley and lemon zest

    Instructions

    • Start by adding your butter into the Instant Pot.
    • Press the saute button.
    • Once the butter starts to melt, add the rice. The butter will provide a nice nutty aroma to the kitchen. 
    • Continue to saute the rice, until the butter is completely melted and the rice has been coated. It will have a nice shiny appearance.
    • Mix in the chicken broth (or stock), water, lemon juice, and salt. 
    • Mix well.
    • Add your lid to the Instant POt, making sure that the vent is in a sealing position. 
    • Set the manual high pressure for 4 minutes.
    • Let the pressure naturally decrease, before you remove your lid. (Remember the lid should easily come off, never force a lid off any Pressure cooker or instant pot)
    • Transfer the rice to a serving dish.
    • For a better presentation, I added some lemon slices.
    • Then added some diced parsley.
    • Plate, serve and enjoy!
