Notes

  • Instant Pot Note:
  • We use a 6-quart Instant Pot brand pressure cooker that we bought in 2016. Different or newer versions may be more sensitive to the "BURN" notice. If you are concerned about the burn notice read this article: "What Does Burn Mean on my Instant Pot?"

  • If you don't have an actual "Instant Pot", don't fret. This simple recipe can be made EXACTLY the same in a pressure cooker. If your pressure cooker doesn't have a "sauté" function you can just sauté the vegetables in a pan on the stove before adding everything to the pressure cooker.
  • You can also make this soup in the crock pot! Cook the chicken breasts in the enchilada sauce in the slow cooker, then use a couple of forks to shred the meat, then add the rest of the ingredients. Let it cook for about six hours on medium heat and serve.
