Instructions
  • Place the stainless steel inner pot inside the Instant Pot®. Press Saute. Add a drizzle of olive oil and the bacon. Brown a few minutes; once done, remove and place on paper towel.

  • After blending olives with splash of water, mix so that all the flavors are integrated. Then add the rice, water, salt, raisins, and bacon.
  • Close and lock the Instant Pot® lid. Make sure the steam release handle is turned to Sealing. Press Pressure Cook, pressure level High, and set time to 5 Minutes.
  • When done cooking, press Cancel and turn the steam release handle to Venting. Once all the pressure has been released, open the Instant Pot® lid and stir.
  • Add the chopped pecans and sliced olives. Remove with a regular or carving fork and let rest for 10 minutes.
  • Finally, top with some more pecans and raisins. All done!
