Directions
1Add dried beans to multicooker. Add 6 cups (1.5 L) water. Lock on lid. Pressure cook on HIGH PRESSURE 14 to 16 min., or until tender. Release pressure manually according to manufacturer’s instructions before removing lid. (Note: If additional cooking is required, lock on lid, activate HIGH PRESSURE to cook for additional minutes.) Drain and rinse beans; set aside.
2Turn multicooker to SAUTE function according to manufacturer’s instructions. Add oil. Cook chicken, onion, celery and pepper until chicken browns, 6 to 8 min. Stir in Cajun seasoning to coat. Stir in tomatoes, rice and 1 1/2 cups (375 mL) water. Lock on lid. Cook on HIGH PRESSURE for 8 min., or until rice is tender. Release pressure manually according to manufacturer’s instructions before removing lid.
3While mixture is hot, stir in reserved beans. Sprinkle with parsley before serving.
Tips
1
For a shorter cooking time, soak dried beans overnight; add to multicooker when tomatoes and rice are added.
2
Substitute dried beans with canned for a speedy preparation. Drain and rinse 1 or 2 cans (19 oz/540 mL each) beans; stirring in at end of cooking time.
