Instant Pot Chicken Broccoli and Rice
Instant Pot Chicken Broccoli and Rice is the perfect solution for a busy week night dinner! In only 5 minutes of your time you can have a delicious home cooked meal on your table!

See how easy it is to make Instant Pot Chicken, Broccoli, and Rice in the video below!

Being that I am now totally and completely addicted to my Instant Pot, I had to convert one of my all time favorite recipes, One Pot Chicken Broccoli and Rice. It has all of my favorite things…cheese, broccoli, and rice! I had no idea it could actually be simpler to do this in the Instant Pot than on the stove top, but it really is! You just satue the chicken for a minute or two and throw everything in so it can cook itself!

Because this is the only meal I can really get my 4-year-old to eat broccoli in, I make it a handful of times a month. I love knowing that under all the delicious cheese is actually some sort of veggie and a protein source getting into his little belly. Believe it or not you can whip this up in almost no time with ingredient you probably already have kicking around in you fridge! That is another reason why it’s my favorites! The lack of dirty dishes is a plus too!

Because I want to be completely honest here, I never can cook broccoli in my Instant Pot correctly. It’s ALWAYS comes out completely overcooked no matter the setting! When I cook this meal, I always just blanch it on the stove and then throw it in and my recipe reflects that. If you are a master Instant Pot user, you can cook it right in the pot (and then tell me your secret!).

Seeing that it will probably take you longer to cut the chicken, broccoli and onion than Instant Pot Chicken Broccoli and Rice even takes to cook, I promise this is one of the easiest week night meals you can make!

Instant Pot Chicken Broccoli and Rice

Turn Instant Pot onto saute. Add butter and heat until hot. Add chicken, onion, and garlic.

Cook chicken mixture until onion starts to get translucent. Add rice, broth, and seasonings.

Cook on manual high pressure for 5 minutes. Perform a quick release when the timer is up.

Immediately add milk and flour mixture and mix until it is well combined.

Add broccoli and cheese and stir until well combined. Serve immediately.

    They say you can cook broccoli perfectly in the instant pot at 0 minutes on the manual setting with a quick release. I’m going to try doing that before making the chicken and rice. Then just throw it in at the end with the other ingredients.

          Always use a minimum of one cup of liquid in the IP. In this case, pour 1 c of water (or broth) in the bottom of the IP. Then place the broccoli on a trivet above the liquid. You can put the broccoli in a glass or metal pot and then on the trivet.

      I did my broccoli florets in the microwave with the leftover chicken broth from the box and microwaved for 3 minutes after I started the chicken. Left them in there until they needed to be added then drained most of the liquid and poured them in. They were cooked all the way through and still a tad bit crunchy, just perfect!

    I made the Instant Pot Chicken and Broccoli recipe. It was delicious! I would like to suggest upping the broth and rice to 1 1/2 cups, and manual cook for 3 mins with a 10 min natural release. It would like to also rinsing the rice to get rid of some of the starch. With these modifications it might stick less to the pot, and the rice would be fluffier. Thanks for sharing your recipe! I will definitely be making it again!

So many times I have gotten a new kitchen appliance only to try it once and rarely take it out again (sorry bread maker.) This one did the trick. Even if I only used it to make this recipe, my husband would insist upon it! Thank you!

    Made this the other day and we all loved it! Even my picky toddler. Safe to say it will be in our rotation. I used long grain brown rice and unfortunately, it does take a lot longer. My brown rice quick setting on my Pressure Cooker XL is 18 mins, so I tried that and ended up cooking it even longer. I’d say 22 mins with an extra 1/4 cup of liquid would be perfect. I honestly didn’t mind the extra time as it was a winner. Thanks for the great recipe!

    Tried this tonight. Was delish! – adult approved and kid friendly 🙂 I doubled the recipe so I could have leftovers. Will definitely make again! I

    My only question and this is more general about the instapot – I feel like the saute function is too hot…and whatever I cook on manual after I saute sticks to the bottom – like this time, it was the rice…it didn’t burn but it got pretty brown. Does anyone have any tips?

      Maybe use low setting for the saute setting and after adding broth, scrape bottom of pot with a wooden spoon to be sure nothing is stuck. Then follow rest of recipe. Just a suggestion.

      Do you find this happening a lot with rice dishes I read if you don’t rinse your rice prior to adding it you get scorching
      Just a thought… it did happen to me a few times but now that I rinse it stopped. Best of luck!

    I tried this recipe and it turned out good despite it burned on the bottom. I don’t have a manual setting and I think I will set it on medium next time. When the dislay said “burn” I turned it off and opened it. Then reset on low.

    I just did a different recipe last night that called for broccoli in the pasta dish. To accomplish this all in the instant pot, you do the rice and chicken recipe as you described, then make a packet of foil to put the broccoli in. Make the foil long enough to cover the brocooli twice. Place broccoli and salt in the foil, fold over the top once and pinch sides. Fold over the other end and pinch sides again. There should be some room in the packet. Once the instant pot is ready to go, place the foil packet directly on top of everything and it steaks right in there! When finished, just open the packet and mix it in! If larger or frozen, it likely needs more than 5 minutes so the 3 minutes and 10 natural release might be just right!

    I just made this and it turned out great! I tweaked a few things. I did basmati rice. I added almost an extra cup of broth. A little extra butter. I put in frozen chopped broccoli right before putting it on manual pressure. And I did 8 minutes. Just to be safe since other reviewers said different kinds of rice called for longer cook times. Family loved it !!

    There is something not quite right about this recipe. I used long grain brown rice and it wasn’t cooked even with two 5-minute sessions on high pressure. Maybe the recipe called for rice that was already cooked? I was able to salvage the meal by simmering until the rice was cooked.

    Made this tonight and it was delicious!

    Excellent! After reading others’ reviews, I did tweak it.

    1. Tried the zero minutes and even three additional minutes on the broccoli because I didn’t want to.cook it separately – and still too crisp. So I wrapped it in foil and laid it on top and it was a bit overdone but still good. So, without the prior cooking, I’m guessing putting it in the foil would’ve yielded a good result. I could easily enjoy more broccoli in it next time.

    2. I increased the rice and broth to 1 1/2 c. each as a reviewer recommended. Rice turned out perfectly!

    3. RE cooking time – FYI, not all Instant Pots have a High Pressure setting. I pressed Manual and set it for 5 minutes and let it Manual Release for 5 minutes before opening and adding milk/flour mixture and finally the cheese.

    4. Didn’t have any fresh garlic so substituted 1/4 t. garlic powder for the 2 cloves.

    Will definitely make again! Fed hubby and me two helpings each plus a nice leftover serving for him when I’m working our local election for the whole day tomorrow. Chilled applesauce was a nice complement to this dish.

    Thanks for a good recipe!

      No extra time is needed to double the recipe. Your pot will just take longer to come to pressure. I have not presonally doubled it because I have a small family, but other readers have. If the rice is not done to your liking, just throw the lid back on the pot and let it sit for 5-10 minutes to soften up even more. 🙂

    This was really, really good. I used boneless thighs. I also used frozen broccoli which I threw in with the chicken on onion and rice just prior to putting the lid on. I also waited 5 minutes after it was done with the pressure timer before releasing. The rice was cooked perfectly.

    This was a super fast, super easy and really delicious meal. It will definitely go into our instant pot rotation.

    Love it. I used brown rice which I presoaked for 10 minutes so that it would cook well. Also I like my broccoli al dente so I didn’t cook it at all until I added it to the hot mixture. I did finely chop it first though. Mixing it and the cheese into the hot mixture was enough to cook it to my tastes.

    Can I add carrots and celery and mushrooms for a little color? My roomate is allergic to broccoli.

      You totally could. I would actually throw it in and cook everything together. Those veggies should hold up much better than broccoli under pressure.

    Can you use minute rice?

      I think it would turn out to mushy, but don’t quote me because I have never tried it.

    Do you add the seasoning that came with the long grain rice?

      No seasoning comes with plain white rice. 🙂

    This was awesome. I’m super happy with the flavour and how quickly it came together. I think I’m going to add chili flakes to this next time, otherwise, it was great!

    I made this tonight and loved it! I wish the rice was a little fluffier so I will try a slower pressure release next time but this is definitely a winner

    I accidentally did the milk and flour (actually heavy cream we were out of milk) in with the rest and it still worked once I added the cheese. Soooooo good

    I should also add that I made this for my partner because I was headed out of town for a few days and we had been doing so well with not eating fast food, this was the perfect, easy, tasty, leftover ready dish to help us.

    I put the boccoli on top of the chicken, etc before cooking for 5 mins. Worked out great.

    I put the broccoli on top of the chicken, rice and broth so it could steam while the rest cooked for the 5 minutes. It turned out perfectly.

    Made this with a bit extra broth and milk, and added the broccoli uncooked. Turned out almost like risotto. All 3 kids loved it. Will definitely make it again. Thanks so much. Can’t wait to try some more of your recipes.

    I get perfect broccoli using about a cup of water, steamer basket, mid size fresh broccoli cuts, steam setting for zero minutes. Cauliflower is good at these settings too.
