Soy-Ginger Pork with Noodles & Greens
This dish is pure magic. The broth is amazing, and the warm pork, kale, and noodles are incredibly satisfying on a cold winter evening. We use the pressure cooker, but instructions are included to make this dish in the oven.
Pressure Cooker Brown Rice
Cooking rice in the pressure cooker has consistently good results and lets you focus on preparing other dishes. If you don’t have a pressure cooker, you can easily cook brown rice on the stove.
Pressure Cooker Pork Tenderloin
A great strategy for getting dinner on the table fast is to prepare part of the meal in a pressure cooker, leaving your hands free to make one of the other dishes. This well-seasoned pork dish is quick to get into the pressure cooker. While it’s cooking, make some garlic broccolini and rice.
If you don’t have a pressure cooker, try these grilled pork tenderloins.
Pressure Cooker Honey & Soy Pork Tenderloin
You can’t have enough recipes that are kid-friendly and can be easily served within 30 minutes. This honey-soy pork tenderloin, prepared in the pressure cooker, gets dinner on the table fast. Serve with hot rice and roasted broccoli or garlic broccolini.
Pressure Cooker Sous Vide Egg Bites
If you’ve had the Starbucks Sous Vide Egg Bites, you know they’re delicious, but they’re also expensive. These copycat egg bites are easily made at home with a blender, silicone baby food mold, and pressure cooker.
Pressure Cooker Ham Hock & Bean Soup
If you serve ham at the holidays, don’t discard the ham bone — it beautifully flavors beans and soups, and this easy pressure cooker recipe is a great way to take advantage of it. After the craziness of the holiday, you can put the soup on, put your feet up, and get ready for some comfort food.
Pressure Cooker Chicken Breasts
Packing school lunches was a new challenge last year when Leo began Kindergarten. I settled into a routine of packing a simple bento box lunch of one protein, one veggie, one fruit, and one cheese. These chicken breasts are easy to prepare in the pressure cooker while you’re making dinner the night before, and they always come out perfectly. Half of one chicken breast, cubed, serves as the protein for one school lunch.
This is also the perfect way to prepare diced or sliced chicken breast to top salads, and the original recipe on The Kitchn includes modified instructions for making shredded chicken for tacos and other dishes.
Pressure Cooker Cilantro Lime Rice
This flavorful rice with cilantro and lime juice is prepared in a pressure cooker, which allows you to start the cooking process and walk away to focus on other dishes. It pairs well with chicken fajitas and charro beans.
Leesa’s Pressure Cooker Charro Beans
A pressure cooker makes this classic Tex-Mex dish of pinto beans stewed with bacon, onion, jalapeño, garlic, and onion easy to serve alongside chicken fajitas.
(If you’re looking for a vegetarian recipe cooked on the stovetop, check out this recipe for vegetarian charro beans.)
Pressure Cooker Pepper Steak
Strips of flat-iron steak and chunks of bell pepper and onions are seasoned with garlic, ginger, Hoisin sauce, soy sauce, and sesame oil, and cooked in the pressure cooker for homemade Chinese food on a weeknight.
