Instructions

Pour the broth into the pot of your Instant Pot.
Sprinkle the chicken breasts with the taco seasoning so each is covered.
Add the chicken to the pot and top with the salsa.
Lock lid in place and turn valve to SEALING. Set to HIGH pressure for 10 minutes.
When the time is up allow the pot to do a 5 minute natural release. After 5 minutes turn valve to VENTING and allow the remaining steam release.
Once the pin drops it is safe to remove the lid. Open up the pot and remove the chicken.
Shred the chicken using two forks.
Reserve ½ cup of the salsa in the pot with a little liquid as possible, and dispose of the rest of the liquid.
Add the shredded chicken and reserved salsa back to the pot and stir together. Add fresh cilantro and lime juice and toss with chicken.
Warm your tortillas and place approximately 2 ounces of chicken on each tortilla.
Top with your favorite taco toppings and serve.
