Instant Pot Peruvian Chicken & Rice (Aji)

Step 1

Add the rinsed rice to the Instant Pot along with the broth or water. Smooth it out so all the rice is submerged in the liquid. Secure the lid, move the valve to the sealing position and hit Manual or Pressure Cook at High Pressure for 3 minutes for any white rice and 15 or 25 minutes for brown rice (15 for more al dente and 25 for softer). When done, allow a 10-minute natural release for the white rice and a 10- or 5-minute natural release for brown (respective to the 15 or 25 minute cook times).

Step 2

While the rice is cooking, add all the aji ingredients to a food processor or blender. Blend until puréed. (NOTE: You can taste it after puréing and then decide if you wish to add the optional ingredients before blending again).

Step 3

When the rice is done, add the aji and rotisserie chicken meat and toss until fully combined. Serve.
