Equipment
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 3 (8 oz) boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 (24 oz) jar salsa I like Pace Thick & Chunky Salsa
- 2 tablespoons Tabasco Chipotle Hot Sauce more or less to taste
- 1 (1.25 oz) packet taco seasoning
- Lime juice and salt to taste
- Cilantro lime sauce for serving
Instructions
- Grease a 6 quart Instant Pot with cooking spray.
- Pour in chicken broth, then top with chicken breasts.
- Layer on salsa, hot sauce, and taco seasoning — don’t stir, this helps avoid a BURN reading.
- Cover and lock the lid — be sure the pressure valve is pointing toward SEALING.
- Cook on HIGH pressure for 10 minutes, then flip the valve to do a quick release.
- Shred chicken directly in the Instant Pot, then taste and season with lime juice and salt, if desired.
- Serve as tacos, in a burrito bowl, on nachos, in a quesadilla, over a bed of lettuce, etc. with a drizzle of my homemade cilantro lime sauce and enjoy!
