Ingredients
- 1 tbsp of butter
- 1 cup of long-grain rice
- 1 cup of water
- ½ cup of chicken broth
- ¼ cup of fresh lime juice
- ½ tsp of salt
- Zest of 1 lime
- 4 lime wedges
- 1 tbsp of chopped cilantro, to your liking
Step 1
Start by heating a multi-functional pressure cooker like Instant Pot® and choosing the Saute function. Add a knob of butter and let it melt until it sizzles. Toss in the rice and stir occasionally until it turns a delightful opaque color, which should take around 2 minutes. Next, pour in the water, chicken broth, a squeeze of zesty lime juice, and a pinch of salt. Seal the lid shut securely.
Step 2
Follow the specific high-pressure cooking settings recommended by the manufacturer and set the timer for 4 minutes. It will take about 10 minutes for the pressure to build up.
Step 3
When the cooking time is up, let the pressure naturally release for roughly 5 minutes as per the manufacturer's instructions. Then carefully perform a quick-release to release the remaining pressure, which should take another 5 minutes. Once all the pressure is released, unlock the lid and stir in the vibrant lime zest. Fluff up the rice with a fork to mix in all the flavors.
Step 4
To serve, dish out the delectable rice with lime wedges on the side for that extra zest, and top it off with freshly chopped cilantro for a burst of color and freshness. Enjoy this flavorful dish right away!
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Invest in some airtight containers to keep your rice fresh and flavorful.
- 2. Use mason jars to store individual servings for a quick grab-and-go lunch.
- 3. Freeze extra portions in ice cube trays for easy reheating later.
