Corn, Chicken, and Rice

Instant Pot Cheesy Ground Beef and Rice

There actually is no chicken in this recipe! For some reason, my oldest son called it Chicken, Corn, and Rice and if that was how he was going to eat I went with it! My kids absolutely love this meal. It is super easy to make in the Instant Pot and most of the ingredients are staples in my pantry. 


I like to get all my ingredients measured out on the counter ahead of time so I can just pop them in one at a time. 

Ingredient List:

  • dab of butter
  • 1lb lean ground beef
  • 10.5 oz chicken broth
  • 2 1/2 cups milk
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 2 tsp onion powder
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 cups long-grain white rice
  • 10.75 oz tomato soup
  • 8.75 oz canned corn
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese

Instructions:

  1. Set your Instant Pot to Saute Normal
  2. Once the pot heats up, melt some butter then add the ground beef
  3. Cook the ground beef  - no need to drain any grease 
  4. Add the chicken broth, milk, salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder and stir it up
  5. Add the rice and push it down until it is covered by the liquid
  6. Add the tomato soup and corn - DON'T STIR
  7. Place the lid on the Instant Pot and turn the steam release handle to the sealing position.
  8. Set the Instant Pot to Pressure Cook High for 7 minutes. (A lot of times I walk away and do something else so I turn off the Keep Warm setting)
  9. When the Instant Pot is done, turn the steam release handle to the venting position and wait for it to be done releasing. 
  10. Remove the lid, add in both kinds of cheese and stir until they are melted
  11. SERVE AND ENJOY!
This makes a lot so you may have leftovers depending on how many people you are feeding. Leftovers keep in a seal-tight container for 3-4 days before it gets questionable - ha! 

I hope you enjoy this meal as much as we do.
