Instant Pot Cilantro Lime Rice:

  • Rinse the rice under cold running water until the water runs clear; drain well. 
  • Press the “Sauté” function key. Select a temperature with the “Adjust” key for “Normal”.When Instant Pot reaches the given working temperature, it displays “Hot” and you can start sautéing.
  • Heat the oil, add rice, and saute for about 2 minutes.
  • Add the garlic and cook for about 45 seconds.
  • Add water or broth, and lime zest together in an Instant Pot or Ninja Foodi. Be sure to scrap tthe bottom of the pot to make sure there is nothing stuck on it and to prevent burning.
  • Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook or manual on high for 3 minutes. After the cooking cycle finished, wait 10 minutes before moving the Venting Knob from Sealing Position to Venting Position to release the remaining pressure.
