And it also comes with the batteries And all you got to do is turn it on then You zero it out after your bowl is on And so i'm weighing out some tomatoes Then i'm gonna do the same thing again Zero it out each time you place a Different size Bowl and these zucchini magically are Chopped up Next i'm going to place another little Bowl and zero out the scale And add in my kalamata olives i Love olives if you don't like olives Leave them out Grab another little bowl obviously i Have a lot of little bowls And then i have these julienne pieces of Sun-dried tomatoes but i decided to use My kitchen chairs And chop them up even smaller all that Prep work is done So now we're going to grab our instant Pot of course i'm drinking a dry red And this dry red is super delicious I'm adding a drizzle of olive oil Setting it to saute on high And i love this little hack how you pull The liner up and twirl it around it just Makes it so easy to coat the bottom Once it says hot add in your zucchini And i'm going to cook this for roughly Three to five minutes I really want to develop some color add A little bit of pepper
And some salt And to keep this super simple i'm going To use garlic powder This is roasted garlic powder i highly Recommend it You can use fresh garlic if you like and Normally i do But sometimes you just want to keep it Really simple So after about four or so minutes it Looked like this And then we're going to remove it from The instant pot Set it aside add another little drizzle Of olive oil And now we're gonna grab our chicken I've cubed it up magically If you're looking to save money and try Out butcher box Check my link in the description box Below i get all Of my meat from butcher box now adding a Little bit of Cracked black pepper and some salt Sensing a pattern here huh as well as Some of this garlic powder And once the chicken has developed some Color we're not looking at To cook all the way through Then we're going to add some dry white Wine I love using wine to cook if you don't Want to use wine You could just use some some water or
Some chicken broth Make sure you deglaze the bottom of the Pot really well Do not skip this step then we're going To grab our bonsai rice And i'm adding the entire package right Into the instant pot give everything a Really good stir And then we're gonna grab our water pour It on in And stir everything just once more again Make sure nothing is stuck down there Then we're gonna grab our lid make sure The silicone ring is on Close the lid make sure it's set to Sealing press cancel on the instant pot Set it to high pressure for four Minutes we're going to allow 10 minutes Of natural pressure And then perform a quick release open up The lid and now we're going to add back In that zucchini that we had already Cooked as well as The chopped up sun-dried tomatoes cherry Tomatoes i've left them whole you can Cut them up if you like And the kalamata olives and then we're Just going to stir Everything to combine it this was the Perfect Texture for me with just the right Amount of liquid if you want yours to be Even creamier You could add a little bit more water
