Instant Pot Chicken

  Thaw chicken, sprinkle top with seasoning of choice. Mrs Dash, garlic salt, etc. Place on rack in instant pot and fill with water until it touches the bottom of the chicken. Cook on high for 20 minutes, allow natural release to retain juiciness. Could try shorter cooks for even tenderer chicken?

Instant Pot Rice

 Instructions Rinsing your rice before cooking makes it less sticky / clumpy, which might be good or bad, depending on what you're after. Mix rice (white jasmine or basmati) and water 1:1 (e.g. 1 cup rice to 1 cup water). Cook on high for 3 min and allow natural release.  Fluff with a fork. In a larger pot, a single cup of rice might burn, so increase the volume. Rice can store well in a container in the fridge for a few days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
