Instructions
- Add chicken to bottom of Instant Pot. Top with black beans, corn, tomatoes, green chiles, bacon, Ranch seasoning, chili powder, chile powder, cumin, onion powder, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Pour in chicken broth. Don’t stir.
PRESSURE COOK
- Secure Instant Pot lid, making sure it’s set to “sealing”. Select Manual or Pressure cook and use the +/- buttons to select 15 minutes.
- When timer beeps and pressure cooking is complete, perform a quick release by carefully moving the valve to “venting”. When the pin drops, remove lid.
SHRED CHICKEN
- Use tongs to remove chicken breasts to a mixing bowl or cutting board and shred with two forks. Be careful when removing the chicken, as it will be very tender and may fall apart.
MAKE IT CREAMY/CHEESY
- Select "Saute" on the Instant Pot and return chicken to pot. Add cubed cream cheese and cheddar cheese and stir until both are completely melted into the chili.
THICKEN CHILI (OPTIONAL)
- For a thicker chili, in a separate bowl, whisk cornstarch and water together until smooth. Stir mixture into the chili and cook a few minutes, until thickened to desired consistency.
SERVE
- Serve hot, with desired toppings.
Notes
- Add all ingredients (except cheddar cheese, and cornstarch/water if using), to slow cooker.
- Stir, cover, and cook on LOW for 6-8 hours, or HIGH for 3-4.
- Remove chicken to a bowl and shred. Return chicken to slow cooker, stirring well to melt the cooked cream cheese into the chili.
- Add cheddar cheese and stir to melt.
- Serve with desired toppings.
- Increase chicken broth to 3 cups. Add all ingredients (except cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and cornstarch/water if using), to dutch oven or large soup pot.
- Cook over MED HIGH heat until chili comes up to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to a simmer and cook for about 15-20 minutes, until chicken is cooked through.
- Remove chicken to a bowl and shred.
- Add cream cheese and cheddar cheese and stir until it melts into the chili.
- Return shredded chicken back to the pot, stir to combine, then serve with desired toppings.
