Ingredients
- 1 small small onion finely diced
- 2 Tbs olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 medium carrot peeled and grated
- 1 1/2 cup long grain rice uncooked
- 2 cups chicken broth
Instructions
- Add the olive oil to the Instant Pot and press the SAUTE button. Change the heat to custom and adjust to MEDIUM heat. When the display reads “HOT add the onion and carrot. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to keep the onions from sticking. When the onions are softened, add the minced garlic and heat for about 30 seconds. Press CANCEL on the Instant Pot.

- Press PRESSURE COOK. Select HIGH and adjust the time to 4 minutes.

- Salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve.
