Ingredients
Chicken and marinade:
1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast or things trimmed and cut into 1” pieces
1/4 c olive oil
3 tbsp red wine vinegar
3 garlic cloves minced
Juice from one lemon
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp dried basil
½ tsp dried thyme
½ tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
Chicken and rice:
2 tbsp olive oil
1 medium red onion chopped into large chunks
1 medium zucchini quartered
2 1/4 c chicken broth or bone broth
Juice from 1 lemon
1 1/4 c jasmine rice
1/2 c chopped parsley optional
1/2 c feta optional
HOW TO MAKE INSTANT POT GREEK CHICKEN AND RICE
Step 1: In a freezer bag or container, place the chicken and the marinade ingredients. Marinate the chicken for at least 15 minutes or overnight.
Step 2: In a 6-quart Instant Pot, add 2 tbsp olive oil. Set the pot to saute mode. Once the oil is hot, add the marinated chicken to the pot. Cook for about 2 to 3 minutes on both sides until brown. Work in 2 to 3 batches if needed to make sure the chicken gets crispy.
Step 3: Add all the cooked chicken to the pot, the chopped onion, and zucchini. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in the chicken broth, add the rice, and cover with the lid. Set on high and cook for 10 minutes more. Once done, turn the valve sealing with a wooden spoon to quickly release the pressure. Open the lid only when it is ready. Then, stir in the fresh parsley and crumbled feta.
Note:
Use regular rice if jasmine rice is not available. Only cooking time will vary. Decrease the cooking time so it’ll not overcook for a minute or two.
