Instant Pot Yellow Rice and Chicken - Gluten and Dairy Free

One time I made some butternut muffins (similar to the recipe below) but instead of putting cinnamon  in them, I accidentally put TURMERIC.  

Do you know what turmeric tastes like in a muffin!?!?  
It tastes like dirt.  Dirt!  Like . . .actual dirt.  

So . . . I put lots of butter and honey on those muffins and fed them to my kids and they didn't even notice!  In fact, they liked them! 

BWAHAHAHAHA!!!  

Note to self:  Mark the turmeric bottle up so that it doesn't look exactly like cinnamon.
Instant Pot Yellow Rice and Chicken - Gluten and Dairy Free 
1 tsp. oil 
1 small onion, diced 
2 c. brown rice 
3 c. frozen mixed veggies 
1 heaping tsp. turmeric 
1 tsp. garlic 
1 tsp. oregano 
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper 
2-3 frozen chicken breasts 

Add oil and onions to Instant Pot.  Turn on "sauté" and cook onions till soft.  Turn off sauté and add the rice, broth, veggies, and spices.  Stir till well mixed.  Add frozen chicken to the top and push down into the rice mixture a little.  

Cook on High Pressure (Manual) for 25 mins.  Allow pressure to come down naturally for 15 minutes, then quick release the remaining pressure.  Remove chicken and shred.  Return chicken to rice and stir to combine.  

Enjoy!
