Dried Large Lima BeansCountry HamOnion CarrotSeasoningsChicken Broth
Rinse and sort the dried butter beans, removing stones or damaged beans. Peel and dice the onion and carrot, then add the cleaned beans, ham, and prepared vegetables to the Instant Pot inner pot.
Add minced garlic, salt, parsley, ground pepper, and bay leaves. Pour in the chicken broth and stir everything together. Check the lid seal, secure the lid, and turn the pressure valve to the closed position.
Press the manual button and set to 30 minutes. When cooking finishes, press cancel and allow a natural pressure release for 20–30 minutes. Release remaining steam before opening the lid.
Open the lid away from your face, stir, and check the beans for tenderness. Mash some against the pot for creamier broth, if desired. Discard bay leaves and serve with white rice and cornbread.
