This instant pot lemon pepper rice is made with white wine, lemon, garlic, parmesan cheese, chicken broth, and seasonings, and it's so so comforting. It comes together in less than 20 minutes, and the instant pot does most of the work. I added rotisserie chicken, which makes it totally effortless and the perfect weeknight meal. It's comfort food but without all the fuss.
