1
Set the Instant Pot on saute and add your oil and onions. Leave the lid off and stir frequently.
2
Saute the onions for about 4 minutes and then add in the rice and garlic.
3
Saute the onions, garlic and rice for about 2 minutes, until they begin to turn a golden color.
4
Add in the tomato sauce, chicken stock, salt, cumin, and cayenne pepper and stir. Scrape the bottom so the rice doesn’t burn.
5
Close and lock the lid. Turn the Instant Pot to Manual for 8 minutes.

When 8 minutes is up and Instant Pot beeps, open the vent and place a towel over it. Be careful, it is very hot.
