Recipe Tips

To make this recipe even easier, you can prep the vegetables and season the chicken ahead of time. This will save you time when it comes to cooking the meal. Additionally, you can use chicken thighs instead of chicken breasts if you prefer. They will add more flavor to the dish. Finally, make sure to use long-grain rice for this recipe. Short-grain rice will become too sticky in the pressure cooker.
