Instructions
- Add olive oil to the Instant Pot. Using the display panel select the SAUTE function.
- When oil gets hot, add diced bacon and cook, stirring, until crisp, 3-5 minutes.
- Add bell pepper to the pot and saute until it begins to soften, about 3 minutes. Add onion to the pot and saute until soft, 3-4 minutes.
- Add garlic, paprika, salt and ground chipotle and cook, stirring, for 1-2 minutes. Add the beer to the pot and deglaze by using a wooden spoon to scrape the brown bits from the bottom of the pot.
- Add rice and stir. Nestle the chicken into the rice mixture in one even layer, turning once to coat.
- Turn the pot off by selecting CANCEL, then secure the lid, making sure the vent is closed.
- Using the display panel select the MANUAL or PRESSURE COOK function*. Use the +/- buttons and program the Instant Pot for 10 minutes.
- When the time is up, let the pressure naturally release for 5 minutes, then quick-release the remaining pressure.
- Carefully remove the chicken from the pot and cut into bite-sized pieces. Return chicken pieces to the pot and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve warm topped with additional crumbled bacon.
Recipe Notes
*If your Instant Pot does not have a MANUAL function, use the Pressure Cook function.

This recipe has good bones, but needs some tweeking. It came out a little to watery and oily. The beer flavor was really good. I might suggest that maybe you omit the oil in the beginning and play with the amount of beer. I like my food a little spicier so id add more spice.
Delicious and super easy!
Disaster of a recipe. The rice burned at the bottom so the InstantPot kept shutting itself down. If there is a good way of making this recipe, they don’t explain it. Waste of goof chicken and bacon.
Has grewt flavor, but I wasnt a big fan of the rice. Texture was more like gumbo.
Fantastic!
Came out like gumbo, was pretty good, not all that hard to make.
Could use a bit more flavor in my opinion, maybe my beer was too bland.
Lovely dish
Dish was tasty but too watery fur me make again. Dish was a soup.
“red pepper” is NOT the same thing as “Red BELL Pepper”. Need to correct the “main ingredient” listing so search works correctly
We did not like this recipe. It was too bitter tasting
Thought everything turned out perfect for us. Great tasting dish.
Fabulous hot nourishing meal. We added some button mushrooms. Will make again!
This dish was easy and tasty! BUT… I read all the reviews prior to making and decided to do only 8oz of beer instead of 12. The consistency was perfect. I also added double red pepper to the recipe and topped wirh red paper flakes. To me it was a good heat but not too much. Enjoy!
easy and yummy!
The instant pot continuoisly burned the rice on the bottom. So, it never reached cooking pressure. I followed the recipe to the letter. I even removed the contents and tried again after scraping the burnt layer. This is not the first recipe I have had this issue with.
Hi AntiCool,
Ensure to always deglaze after sauteing, and if left on sautee too long after adding the beer it may have evaporated too much liquid.
Brand new to instapot. I decided to try this as my first attempt at using the pot. Turned out perfect..although me and my daughter thought it needed just something else. Maybe some beans..red, black etc. Will tinker with this recipe, but it is actually tasty as is.
Very bland and needed more flavor big time!
Very good and easy, next time im leaving all the bacon out and adding it in after pressure cooking.. i think it lost its flavor under pressure. Other than that, very tasty!
1st dinner in Instant Pot. Meal came out exactly as expected, chicken super moist and perfect rice. Found taste to be bitter – probably from beer – next time will try chicken stock.
Using the Instapot Lux- 3qt. Ended up getting the burn message multiple times. We tried everything from adding a second beer and scraping the bottom to physically removing the food and cleaning the bottom completely and putting the food back in. Made the recipe following it to a T but gave up and finished cooking on the stove. Tasted really good but needed more salt.
A burn message came on 3 times, i just cooked on the stove. Needed more salt and less beer.
Very yummy and easy to make. Will remake this, and also play with it to see if I can discover new flavours.
Do not use an IPA. My better judgement said not to and I did it anyway. Can’t say for sure but I think it would have been great with a run of the mill lager or chicken broth like it said to use.
Don’t use an IPA. Rice was perfectly cooked. Chicken broth or a run of the mill lager would be good. Maybe a Dr. Pepper?
Nice dish and easy to prepare.
Wifey really liked it!
Not much flavor and it turned out more like mush. The upside is the chicken was crazy tender.
I used applewood smoked bacon and Redds Apple ale. Worked great,awesome flavor. Will definitely be making this recipe again.
I would double the rice and Add another half a beer but it was delicous!
I made this with Rice-a-Roni long grain & wild rice and it came out super delicious! I did not use the bell pepper or any other pepper ingredients. My only complaint is the chicken was a little dry. Im not sure how to fix that so the chicken doesn’t cook as much but the rice still cooks thoroughly?
Hi Tarin,
When setting up pressure cooking program, ensure the keep warm is off to avoid overcooking. Waiting 5 minutes before releasing pressure helps the meat retain its juices.
It was good. We made ours with a pale ale and extra spice. Chicken was a lirtke dry, not sure why.
So good
Flavor was good. It didn’t build pressure though and rice burnt to the bottom. I scraped it and set it to the rice setting for 10 minutes. Most of the rice was cooked. Disappointed.
My husband loved this recipe. The rice ended up a little sticky, but nothing to complain about. The chicken was extremely tender and I barely had to cut it when I removed it from the pot. It has just the right amount of spice to create a nice bite but not burn your mouth. The crispy bacon topping adds a nice crunch to the dish.
Kind of bland
Made it for my husband and I- Delicious! Would make again 100%
Had two good size lunches for leftovers.
Do not use more rice than directed!
Absoultely loved this!! I used a bottle of beer and some chicken broth..so delicious!
So easy and so tasty!!!
Loved by all 3 generations of my family!
Loved by all 3 generations of my family! Just enough spice. Will definately make it again.
Great flavor!!!! Tender chicken. Rice burnt to the bottom of the pot a littke. Will make again.
We loved this recipe. Made it with double rice and double beer just a standard bud light. Will definitely be making this again. It was so quick and simple.
Super good.
This recipe is great! We like to make beercan chicken on the grill, but this works well for those winter nights when the grill is closed. I subbed the crumbled bacon topping for chopped fresh cilantro, and it made all the difference.
I made this with chicken breast instead of thigh as that is what i had. Still delicious, roce was perfect, excellent spice! Will be making this again for sure!
Tasted great! But I used jasmine rice and got a “burn” error message as the rice soaked up the liquid too quickly, stuck to the bottom, and it couldn’t reach pressure.
Next time I will make the rice seperately.
My family enjoyed this very much. Easy to make
My Husband loved it! I liked it & it didn’t take too long to cook. I may have to use chicken broth next time, tasted a bit like beer rather than chicken & bacon.
Smells amazing when you cook it. But make sure you don’t use an IPA beer or any hoppy beer, it will hinder the flavors. I would of liked it better if i used a bland flavor beer or chicken broth because I tasted too much of the beer.
I used chicken breast and a whole tsp chipotle since my husband likes things spicy. It turned out great! He loves it, will definitely be making this again. I made sure the chicken sunk into the rice mixture a bit before pressure cooking and turned off keep warm function and it was very tender and juicy
Loved this. Instead of 12oz can of beer we used a 16oz can and there was no sign of rice burning. Great and easy reciepe!!
My favorite meal its fantastic
Was my first attempt at this appliance, was good and really was easy.
Good stuff! Great recipe
It was easy to make and came out as expected, the chicken was very moist but the entire thing was pretty bland. I don’t know what it’s missing, but it’s missing something.
Good but flavor was kind of bland.
This was very simple to make and tastes yummy! Everything is better with Beer and Bacon.
Maybe for those who want more flavor just add more paprica and chipotle pepper or whatever extra spice you like or think will complement the dish.
Very good and easy. Wife is alergic to peppers so skipped that and added can of corn after pulling the chicken out. Ton of flavor and sooo good!
We had to add a few extra minutes as the chicken was not thoroughly cooked
Love this!
This dish is great! We opted instead for chopped fresh cilantro instead of crumbled bacon for the topping
New family favorite! Just wish i made more because it went quick no leftovers!
Next time I make this I will add extra rice, may even double it as it was very soupy at first. Had good taste though.
SO YUMMY! Cooked everything except the rice according to recipe! Substituted quinoa for the rice which adds more protein which my family needs. I ate seconds and thirds
My family loved this!! Sure ti be ine of our favorites.
Very easy and delicious!
This was really good! I don’t like beer at all and even though I can sort of taste it I would totally nake this again! I garnished with cheese and sour cream.
I followed this recipe verbatim and I ended up getting the burn signal…I don’t understand why…when I opened up the lid all the rice was burnt to the bottom of the pot 🙁
Excellent!
Taste amaxing. Got a little burned rice on the bottom. Just gonna add some more liquid next time.. Yumm
Moist and flavorful! Bacon makes the world go round, and it definitely makes this a great recipe! Easy and delicious! A repeat!
A little salty, very flavorful!
Tasty and quite easy. I’ll make it again.
Very good! But i would double it next time 🙂
I kept having to add more liquid because it kept burning. I ended up taking it out of the instant post and finished cooking it in the oven.
2 stars instesd of one becaus it still tasted good.
Hi AlynaJC,
After adding the liquid, you need to deglaze the bottom of the Instant Pot before adding in the rice.
So easy and flavorful.. resembles a creamy risotto.
So good!!!!
Would be good with asparagus
