Recipe View 5 mins Once the cooking time is complete, carefully release the pressure using the quick-release method according to the manufacturer's instructions (approximately 5 minutes). Unlock and remove the lid. Stir the mixture well and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste before serving.

For a creamier texture, stir in an additional 1/4 cup of shredded cheese after cooking.
Adjust the amount of jalapeños to control the spice level. For a milder dish, remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapeños.
Long-grain rice works best in this recipe to prevent it from becoming mushy. Basmati or Jasmine rice are good choices.
Feel free to substitute other types of cheese, such as Monterey Jack or pepper jack, for the Cheddar.
