Description

A delightful dish featuring ground beef and rice cooked in a flavorful bang bang sauce, easy to prepare in an Instant Pot.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 cup rice
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1/2 cup bang bang sauce
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Green onions for garnish

Instructions

  1. Set your Instant Pot to the sauté setting and add the ground beef, diced onion, and minced garlic. Sauté until the beef is nicely browned and the onion has softened.
  2. Once browned, drain any excess fat from the pot.
  3. Add in the rice, beef broth, bang bang sauce, soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Stir everything well to combine.
  4. Close the Instant Pot lid securely and set it to high pressure for 10 minutes.
  5. After cooking, allow a natural pressure release for about 5 minutes, then manually quick release any remaining pressure.
  6. Using a fork, fluff the rice gently before garnishing with chopped green onions and serving warm.

Notes

For a vegan version, swap ground beef with lentils and use vegetable broth. Adjust spice levels to your preference.
