Instant Pot Dirty Rice

 

1 lb. lean ground beef

1 lb. ground sausage

1 cup yellow onions diced

3/4 cup green bell peppers diced

1/2 cup celery diced

1 Tbsp. creole seasoning

2 cups long grain white rice

2 cups chicken stock

4 thyme sprigs

2 bay leaves

1/4 cup green onions thinly sliced

2 Tbsp. parsley finely chopped

 

Using sauté setting – add beef and sausage to pot along with onions, peppers, celery, and creole seasoning. As the meat begins to brown, break up as much as possible and cook until meat is browned thoroughly. Add rice to pot, along with chicken stock, and mix well. Place thyme and bay leaves on top (so that you can easily remove them later). Lock lid and cook for 12 minutes at low pressure. Once cook time is complete, allow pressure to release naturally (will take about 10 minutes). Remove thyme sprigs and bay leaves, then mix. Finally, add green onions and parsley, then mix really well one last time.
