Ingredients

  • 1 lb. organic, pasture-raised chicken breast, boneless
  • 1 cup organic wild rice
  • 2 cups homemade bone broth
  • 2 T. herbs (thyme, rosemary, parsley, sage, etc...)
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Add all of the ingredients to your Instant Pot. Fasten on the lid and set the Instant Pot to manual, high pressure for 28 minutes.
  • Allow the steam to vent naturally. Then release the lid. Use two forks to shred the chicken breasts and mix them into the rice.
  • You can serve it immediately or let the rice and chicken slow cook for an hour prior to serving. You can add steamed or blanched veggies to the mix at this time as well. If the mix starts to look dry, add a little water to keep the meal moist prior to serving.
  • Serve with your favorite veggies or homemade bread product!

Slow Cooker Version

  • Add the wild rice, broth, and herbs to a slow cooker and set it on high for 4-6 hours.
  • Cut the chicken breasts into 1" chunks. In a large cast iron skillet heat a little coconut oil and sear the chicken breast pieces until cooked on all sides.
  • Add the chicken pieces to the wild rice and broth mixture. Check on the meal after 1.5-2 hours to ensure there is still plenty of moisture. If it starts to look dry, add a little more water to keep the meal moist until you are ready to serve it.
  • Serve with your favorite veggies or homemade bread product!
