My Instant Pot scared the whits out of me when I first met it! My husband came home, big ole grin on his face, with a giant package from Amazon. As he proudly told me what he procured and all of it’s many amazing functions, I was less than pleased.

I was already overwhelmed. The last thing I needed was a new thing to learn. It intimidated me and sat there glaring at me from beside the TV in our living room for a whole month before my husband asked me if he should return it.
That guilted me into removing it from the box. I read the confusing directions cover to cover. I decided to make brown rice first. I skipped the water test and jumped right in, anticipating an utter disaster the entire time.
But it wasn’t an utter disaster. It was a great success! So successful that my children gobbled it all up and demanded that I make another pot full! I’ve been the Instant Pot’s biggest fan ever since.

I have a double recipe of your rice in my IP right now! I added a little onion, too. But, I’m curious as to why you add coconut oil in your rice recipes?
Just to get a little extra healthy fat in there and I like my rice a little oily. 🙂 You can omit it if you’d like or add more. It won’t alter anything.
Loved this rice and the coconut oil in it too! Mine turned out perfects thsnks!!
Can you halve this recipe? There are only 2 of us and I don’t want to make too much.
Totally! 🙂
I have a Cuisinart, same thing but not an actual Instant Pot.. When you say Manuel-would you know what setting on any pressure cooker? I would love to convert to my Cuisinart.
Thank You, Teri
I only have an Instant Pot but if your pot has a high pressure setting that should work!
Very tasty. My daughter does not like brown rice, but she went for seconds 😊.
Thanks for sharing!
YAY! Ah, I am so glad ya’ll liked them!
Maybe a dumb question, but guessing it’s ok to double ingredients? I have 3 healthy, hungry girls that love to eat and a hungry husband. Would need more than 1 cup 🙂
OH and thoughts on sub’ing with beef instead of chicken?
Waiting for my instant pot to arrive, can’t wait to try out your recipes!
Sure, make as much as you need for your family. 🙂 I think it would be delicious!
