Simply pour the rice into a mesh sieve or strainer and run water over it for 10 seconds or so.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 2: Add oil, butter, rice, and garlic to the Instant Pot.<\/strong> Adding oil to the bottom will prevent the rice from sticking, but the butter helps to add a nice flavor to the whole dish. So, add butter, along with the rice and garlic and saut\u00e9 for 1 minute.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-23956\" src=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Instant-Pot-Spanish-Rice-1.jpg\" alt=\"rice and butter in a pressure cooker\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" data-pin-nopin=\"true\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Instant-Pot-Spanish-Rice-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Instant-Pot-Spanish-Rice-1-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Instant-Pot-Spanish-Rice-1-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Instant-Pot-Spanish-Rice-1-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Instant-Pot-Spanish-Rice-1-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Instant-Pot-Spanish-Rice-1-1024x1536.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 3: Add all other ingredients.<\/strong> Pour everything EXCEPT the cilantro into the pot, then close the lid and make sure the knob on top is set to &#8220;seal&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-23957\" src=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Instant-Pot-Spanish-Rice-1-4.jpg\" alt=\"rice and broth in a pressure cooker\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" data-pin-nopin=\"true\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Instant-Pot-Spanish-Rice-1-4.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Instant-Pot-Spanish-Rice-1-4-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Instant-Pot-Spanish-Rice-1-4-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Instant-Pot-Spanish-Rice-1-4-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Instant-Pot-Spanish-Rice-1-4-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Instant-Pot-Spanish-Rice-1-4-1024x1536.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 4: Pressure cook for 4 minutes.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 5: Natural release for 10 minutes.<\/strong> Then, remove the lid and fluff the rice with a fork.

It&#8217;ll last for up to a week, though it tastes best if consumed within 48 hours.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-23953\" src=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Instant-Pot-Spicy-Spanish-Rice-1-9-1.jpg\" alt=\"large bowl of rice\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1801\" data-pin-description=\"Easy INSTANT POT SPANISH RICE!
