Press sauté mode; add oil, onions, and bell peppers. Cook and stir until onion is golden brown, about 5 minutes. Then turn the pot off and scrape the bottom with a wood spatula.

Step 2

Add drained and rinsed can of beans to the pot; stir in broth, spices, diced tomatoes, salt, and pepper. Stir together. Sprinkle in uncooked long grain white rice on top and gently submerge into liquid below.

Step 3

Place the lid on, turn the valve to "Seal" and press cook on high pressure for 6 minutes. When the pot beeps, allow for a 4 minute natural release of steam.    Serve hot and garnish with fresh cilantro
