This one-pot comfort food dish is flavorful, filling and easy to prepare. Coming together in 30 minutes, this is a perfect recipe for a busy day. Here’s how I make Instant Pot Beef Taco Rice.
Equipment Needed
- electric pressure cooker (I used a 6 qt Instant Pot)
- measuring cups
- measuring spoons
- silicone cooking spoon
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs ground beef
- 2 cups white rice
- 14 oz frozen corn
- 2 packets taco seasoning
- 1x 28 oz can diced tomatoes seasoned with basil, garlic and oregano
- 2 cups water
Instructions
Set the Instant Pot to saute.
Place the ground beef into the pot and then brown it.
Once the meat has finished browning, then you add in the rice, seasoning, water, corn and tomatoes (in that order).

Set the Instant Pot to cook on manual high pressure for 8 minutes.
Let pressure naturally release for 10 minutes and then do a quick pressure release.
Serve immediately with shredded cheese and sour cream.
