Ingredients
- 3 Tablespoons Butter
- 1 Medium Yellow Onion (Diced)
- 1 1/2 Pounds Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts (Cut into bite sized pieces)
- 2 teaspoons Garlic Powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Dried Oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon Pepper
- 3 Cups Chicken Broth
- 1 1/2 Cups Long Grain White Rice
- 3 Cups Fresh Broccoli Florets
- 1 Cup Freshly Grated Parmesan Cheese
Instructions
- Turn the Instant Pot on to saute mode and add the butter.
- Once the butter is melted, add in the onion and cook stirring occasionally for 2-3 minutes until beginning to soften.
- Season the chicken with the garlic powder, salt, onion powder, oregano, and pepper.
- Add the chicken to the pot with the onion and cook, stirring occasionally just until the chicken is golden, about 3-4 minutes.
- Pour about 1/4 cup of the chicken broth into the pot and use a wooden spoon to deglaze any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
- Turn the pot off and stir in the rice, and the remaining broth. Place the lid on the pot and set the valve to sealing.
- Place the instant pot on manual, high pressure for 5 minutes cook time.
- Once the cook time is up, allow the pot to come to pressure naturally for 5 minutes.
- Do a quick release and stir in the broccoli. Allow to sit for 5 minutes.
- Turn the pot off and stir in the parmesan cheese.
- Serve immediately. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
