  • 1 cup long-grain brown rice rinsed until water runs clear

  • 1 1/4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • 3 Tablespoons fresh lime juice

  • 1 Tablespoon lime zest preferably organic
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves chopped
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions
 

  • Add rice and broth to the Instant Pot and stir to combine.
  • Cover and lock lid into place. Set the valve on the top of the lid to “Sealing."
  • Select the “Manual” and “High Pressure” settings.
  • Adjust cook time to 22 minutes. The Instant Pot will come to pressure and then cook for 22 minutes.
  • Once cook time is complete, allow pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes.
  • Then do a quick release by carefully turning the sealing valve to either side for any remaining pressure. 
  • Remove lid and stir in lime juice, lime zest, cilantro, and garlic powder. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste, and stir to combine.
  • If desired, allow flavors to combine for several minutes before serving.
