Instant Pot White Chicken Chili
Description
This recipe begins by sautéing onion, garlic, and a blend of chili powder, cumin, and oregano in olive oil to build a fragrant base. Flour is added to lightly thicken the chili before combining with boneless, skinless chicken thighs, chicken stock, beans, and mild green chiles. Pressure cooking in an Instant Pot makes the chicken tender and infuses flavors quickly. After shredding the chicken in the pot, sour cream and cilantro are stirred in, adding creaminess and freshness. The seasoning is adjusted with salt and pepper.
The chili produces a smooth, mildly spiced stew with tender chunks of chicken and beans throughout. It can be served immediately and pairs well with toppings like shredded cheese or additional fresh herbs for added texture and flavor.
