To make this Instant Pot chicken and rice, I started by slicing some boneless, skinless chicken breasts into strips.
Then I set my Instant Pot to Saute Less for 5 minutes.
I added a dab of margarine to the pot.
Then I added the chicken breast slices to the pot.
I left the chicken breast slices to cook, stirring them occasionally.
When the Instant Pot turned off the chicken breasts slices still had some pink remaining.
I added some water, condensed chicken broth and lemon juice to the pot.
Then I added some long grain and wild rice.
I poured some condensed cream of chicken soup and lemon pepper seasoning on top of the rice.
Then I placed the lid on the Instant Pot, turned the steam release handle to the sealing position and set the Instant Pot to Pressure Cook High for 8 minutes.
When the Instant Pot was done cooking, I allowed it to natural release for 3 minutes.
Then I turned the steam release handle to the venting position to finish with a quick release.
I removed the lid from the Instant Pot and stirred everything together.
Then I added some butter to the pot and stirred well again.
I left the chicken and rice to sit for a few minutes before serving.
I used an 8 quart Instant Pot Duo to test this recipe.
This creamy chicken and rice dish is packed with flavour.

I made this in my Instant Pot Lux and used the Meat/Stew (since there isn't a straight pressure cook setting) setting and it turned out great.
