- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 3 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 cooking onion, diced

- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained

- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 2 teaspoons ground black pepper

Directions
Step 1
Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot) and select Saute function. Add oil. Saute chicken, onion, and garlic until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes; do not brown garlic.
Step 2
Add broth, black beans, rice, corn, coconut milk, hot sauce, thyme, black pepper, brown sugar, and allspice and stir well. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure and close vent. Set timer for 15 minutes. Allow about 10 minutes for pressure to build.

Feel free to use 2 bay leaves in place of thyme, if you prefer.
