Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Switch your pot on the saute setting, add the cooking oil and allow to heat.
  2. Chop the chicken breast into large chunk, then add to the pot and cook until it loses the pink look, but is not fully cooked.
  3. Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the chicken, then add the corn, beans, tomatoes, chilies, onion and garlic to the instant pot and mix well.
  4. Put the lid on the instant pot and seal. Choose the manual setting and cook at high pressure for 15 minutes.
  5. Once done, allow a natural release for 10 minutes, then do a quick release.
  6. Open the lid and stir. Use 2 forks to shred the chicken, or simply break up the chicken chunks on the side of the pot with a wooden spoon.
  7. Add your cilantro and sitr until combined.
  8. Test for seasoning, and serve with sour cream, cheddar cheese and extra cilantro.

Notes

  • Notes You can skip the browning step of the chicken breasts but I think it adds a better flavor to the finished dish. Mix up the types of beans used. I use a 3 bean blend of kidney beans, black beans, and pinto beans - but if you don't have those - just grab 2 cans of any of these varieties: kidney beans, black beans, pinto beans, cannellini beans, and even garbanzo beans. Whatever you have! Add some bell peppers - I like using a mix of colors, but red and green are my favorites for this chili. Want to dial up the heat? Add some crushed chili flakes, some chili powder or some cayenne pepper with the taco seasoning and garlic.
