Step 1

Set the Instant Pot on SAUTE settings and keep it on NORMAL heat setting.

Step 2

Add oil and when it becomes hot add the diced smoked sausages and brown them both sides. Set them aside.

Step 3

In the same pot add the onion and garlic and saute until they begin to become limp. Throw in the bell peppers and saute for 30 seconds.

Step 4

Add the liquid and de-glaze the pot very well with the help of a spatula scraping the sides and bottom of the pot to loosen any food particles. This will prevent the Burn error. Also add salt according to your taste preference.

Step 5

CANCEL the SAUTE function and rinse the rice very well under running tap water until clear water runs through. This will prevent the rice from becoming gummy.

Step 6

Add the rinsed rice into the pot and gently press down with the help of the spatula. Do not mix.

Step 7

Dump the canned diced tomatoes on top of the rice. DO NOT MIX ever! Otherwise you'll end up with BURN error.

Step 8

Close the lid of the instant pot and SEAL the valve. PRESSURE COOK on HIGH for 4 minutes.

Step 9

When the pressure cooking cycle is over the instant pot will begin to beep. Wait for Natural pressure release (NPR) for 10 minutes and than release the rest of the pressure manually by moving the Valve from the SEALING to the VENTING position. Open the lid carefully when the metal pin drops.

Step 10

Gently fluff the rice with the help of a fork or a spatula. The rice will be slightly soft now as it's piping hot. As it gradually cools down it'll have the perfect consistency.

Step 11

Now, add back the browned sausages and mix with the rice.

Step 12

Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and enjoy!
