Hướng dẫn

Make spice mixture, and rub chicken: Stir together smoked paprika, salt, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper in a small bowl. Place chicken on a plate, and rub seasoning mixture evenly over chicken breasts; set aside.

Brown chicken: Select SAUTÉ setting on a programmable pressure multicooker (such as Instant Pot). (Times, instructions, and settings may vary according to cooker brand or model.) Select HIGH temperature setting and allow to preheat 2 to 3 minutes. Add oil to cooker, swirling to coat. Add chicken in an even layer, and cook until browned on both sides, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.

Sauté vegetables and rice: Add butter to cooker. Stir in mushrooms, onion, carrots, and garlic; cook, stirring often, until onion is translucent and garlic is fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add rice, and cook, stirring constantly, until coated with butter about 20 seconds. Press CANCEL.

Add ingredients to pressure cooker, and set to cook: Stir in broth. Place chicken in an even layer on top of rice mixture; drizzle with any accumulated juices. Cover cooker with lid, and lock in place. Turn steam release handle to SEALING position. Select MANUAL/PRESSURE COOK setting. Select HIGH pressure for 8 minutes. (It will take about 10 minutes for cooker to come up to pressure before cooking begins.)

Release pressure: When cooking has finished, let the pressure release naturally for 7 minutes. Carefully turn steam release handle to VENTING position, and let steam fully escape (float valve will drop). This will take 2 to 3 minutes.

Shred chicken: Remove lid from cooker. Remove chicken from cooker, and place on a plate. Shred with two forks. Fluff rice with a fork, and stir in shredded chicken. Garnish with parsley, if desired, and serve immediately.
