  3. 1 ½ pounds chicken breast tenderloins, cubed
  4. 1 large onion, diced
  5. 1 ½ cups diced carrot

Instructions

  1. Stir broth and brown rice together in a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot) until rice is moistened. Add chicken, onion, carrot, celery, corn, garlic powder, onion powder, poultry seasoning, thyme, salt, and pepper. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure and set the timer for 18 minutes.

This was excellent! I used Jack Stack All Purpose Rub as poultry seasoning and followed the recipe but used 3 cups broth like the others and made rice separately. I make cilantro lime rice which only added to the flavor!!! Sooo Good. My picky kids scarfed it down.
Monique Everett
Delish! I used 3 cups of broth as one of the other reviewers suggested which was essential, but otherwise as is. Will be part of our regular rotation of Instant Pot recipes.
Tammy Peterson
This is a very good soup. But it only called for one and half cups of broth, which wasn’t enough. I used about 3 Cups and it turned out very well! I followed the rest of the recipe exactly and will make it again!

My wife and I loved it. No half and half so we used 2% and sour cream. I will make it again.
