We love Hawaiian-style chicken in a slow cooker, but sometimes we need something that comes together fast! We tweaked our favorite recipe and came up with this Instant Pot pineapple chicken for a quick and easy weeknight dinner.

I expected my rice to be mushy because generally I cook rice for far less time when using the pressure cooker. However, I was pleasantly surprised! The rice mixture seemed soupy when I first pulled out the chicken to shred, but by the time I added the chicken back and gave it a stir, everything came together perfectly. The flavor was great, and the leftovers were even better the next day.","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":5,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2022-02-05","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"CyanCoffee"},"reviewBody":"So I added the Brown rice to the instant pot along with the broth the barbecue sauce the 20 oz can of pineapple undrained Added the salt stirred it up laid the chicken in there and Set it to pressure cook on high for 20 minutes and release the pressure naturally for about 10 minutes.. And shredded the Chicken added it back in and the rice was not even close to being done, so I set it for another 10 minutes pressure cook. I let it naturally depressurize for 16 minutes minutes. This time the rice was done. But by this time the chicken was overcooked. So to summarize I'm not very impressed with this recipe. I think cooking the rice with the chicken is a mistake. The flavors weren't too bad. it was very soupy but after letting it sits with the lid off for about 10 minutes it absorbed most of the liquid and was a little bit better but all in all not something that I really didn't care for. If I was going to do this again I would cook the rice separately ,and Add a little bit more barbecue sauce and possibly some saracha or some sort of hot sauce in a small quantity. Cook it shreddit and place on top of the already cooked rice probably wouldn't be too bad.","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":2,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2023-06-15","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"mmcoopie"},"reviewBody":"
Made exactly according to the recipe and it was very good. Rice was perfect, chicken was juicy and tender. The green onions provided a nice fresh contrasts. We added a little teriyaki sauce tableside to boost the flavor a bit. My husband said he could see sliced carrots or maybe a pinch of red pepper flakes as a good add in as well. We use a 10-point new recipe grading scale and he gave it a 9 as is. We will make it again.<\/p>","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":4,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}}]},"video":{"data":{"status":204},"message":"No shortcode found in recipe"},"rms_legacy_id":"232819","romance_copy_dek":"We love Hawaiian-style chicken in a slow cooker, but sometimes we need something that comes together fast!
