I differ a little recipe-wise, but I basically made this around 3 weeks ago and it was so good!
Jyothi(Jo)
I can never get bored of this burrito bowl. Looks absolutely delicious!
Jenn
Would you alter the cooking time for brown rice or long grain (stove top time is 20 mins)
Jamela Porter
I would try using the multi grain button
Mary
Do you put the chicken breasts in whole and then shred them when it's done or do you start with cooked shredded chicken?
Jamela Porter
Whole.
Katie Kahn
My rice button made it complete mush. Do you put in the time manually or just use the button?
Jamela Porter
I always use the button. It defaults to 12 for mine
Krystal Reynolds
I’m so new at the instant pot. Do you put the chicken in frozen or thawed? Thanks for your help. Excited to try this
Jamela Porter
You can do either way, cook time is the same
Lisa
is the adobo the seasoning or condiment?
Jamela Porter
It is a seasoning
Angie
Do you have any suggestions for using riced cauliflower instead of rice? Amount of water used or cooking time difference? Thanks!
Jamela Porter
I’m not sure since cauliflower doesn’t absorb, I am looking to do a keto version.
Tammy
In looking at this recipe to prepare, it looks like there are steps missing. If you put in whole breasts at what step/place do you shred it? 12 mins in Rice doesn't seem nearly long enough to cook that much chicken. Am I missing something?
Jamela Porter
No. And no steps missing. It’s all there.
Joann
Can this be done in a slow cooker? And if so what temp and how long? Thanks for any help you can give me. Have a wonderful and blessed day

I'm confused about something. I watched the video and it looks like small pieces of chicken. But then in the end presentation pictures I don't see pieces of chicken. Do you shred them at some point! Thanks for your help!
