I love this Cilantro Lime Chicken and Lentil Rice Bowls. I often make a batch of this for dinner and save the leftovers for lunches during the week. This tasty meal is jam-packed with protein and flavor. It is easy to prepare, and thanks to the Instant Pot, you can do something else as the ingredients cook away.
This is such a simple recipe, and it is a superb use of the Instant Pot. To prepare this delicious dish, start by adding everything to your Instant Pot. Cook the ingredients for 20 minutes on the “Soup” setting. Quick release the steam and stir up the mixture. Add more salsa verde to taste. Serve this tasty dish with rice, cotija cheese and a squeeze of lime!
