Follow The Directions

01

Step

Engage the Sauté function on your multi-functional pressure cooker (e.g., Instant Pot). Add olive oil and allow it to heat until shimmering. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Introduce the sliced mushrooms, diced onion, celery, carrot, and minced garlic to the pot. Sauté until the vegetables have softened, releasing their aromatic essence. (approximately 5 minutes)

03

Step

Deactivate the Sauté function. Pour in the chicken stock, wild rice blend, dry white wine, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Stir to ensure all ingredients are well combined.

04

Step

Secure the lid, ensuring it is properly locked. Select high pressure and set the timer for 30 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for the pressure to build within the pot.

05

Step

Once the timer has elapsed, allow the pressure to release naturally for 15 minutes, following the manufacturer's instructions. Subsequently, carefully release any remaining pressure using the quick-release method (about 5 minutes).

06

Step

Unlock and carefully remove the lid. Stir in the toasted pecans and balsamic vinegar, distributing them evenly throughout the wild rice mixture. Serve hot and enjoy!

For a vegetarian version, substitute vegetable stock for chicken stock.
Toast the pecans in a dry pan over medium heat for 3-5 minutes, or until fragrant, for enhanced flavor.
Adjust the amount of balsamic vinegar to taste, depending on your preference for acidity.
If you don't have white wine on hand, you can substitute it with an equal amount of chicken or vegetable broth with a splash of lemon juice.
