CHICKEN FAJITAS – INSTANT POT RECIPES
Fajitas are so easy when you start with frozen chicken tenders! You may need to cut the tenders into smaller bits before serving them, depending on how stuffed you like the tortillas. We prefer them filled to the brim with whole tenders in the mix. You may want to take more, um, delicate bites. The best way to cut them to bits is to use kitchen shears after cooking. The pickling brine from the jalapeño rings adds salt and a little sour kick to the dish. The amount you use is not crucial (there’s already enough liquid in the pot). Just stick a tablespoon into the jar and pull out some of the rings with their brine. A little more or less won’t change the overall character of the dish. Unfortunately, because of the way the timing works in this recipe, you can’t use fresh bell pepper strips. They get too soggy with the longer cooking time that the chicken tenders require.

Steps:
- Place the onion slices in an Instant Pot. Add the broth, half the seasoning blend, and all the pickled jalapeño rings with their juice and stir well. Set the pot’s rack (with its handles up) or a large, open vegetable steamer in this mixture.
- Set half the chicken tenders on the rack. Sprinkle them with half the remaining seasoning blend (that is, a quarter of the original volume). Top with the remaining chicken tenders and sprinkle with the remaining seasoning blend. Top everything with the bell pepper strips. Do not stir or toss. Lock the lid onto the pot.
- Optional 1 Max Pressure Cooker Press Pressure cook on Max pressure for 12 minutes with the Keep Warm setting off.
- Optional 2 All Pressure Cookers Press Poultry, Pressure Cook or Manual on High pressure for 15 minutes with the Keep Warm setting off.
- Use the quick-release method to bring the pot’s pressure back to normal. Unlatch the lid and open the cooker. Use kitchen tongs, silicone cooking mitts, or thick hot pads to remove the rack or steamer from the pot, letting the chicken fall into the sauce below. Stir well.
- Press the button for SAUTE, set it for High, More or Custom 400°F. Set the timer for 15 minutes.
- As the sauce comes to a simmer, use a slotted spoon to transfer the chicken tenders and the vegetables to a serving platter. Boil the sauce, stirring often, until reduced to a glaze, about 10 minutes. Turn off the SAUTÉ function and pour the sauce over the chicken and vegetables before serving.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add tortellini. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tortellini float to the top and the filling is hot, about 5 minutes. Drain.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir chicken breast in hot oil until no longer pink in the center, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Melt butter in another skillet over medium heat; cook and stir mushrooms and garlic powder until mushrooms begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Stir heavy cream into mushrooms and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Add Parmesan cheese, parsley, and salt. Continue to cook until cheese is melted, about 1 minute.
- Stir tortellini and chicken into mushroom-cream sauce. Simmer until heated through, about 2 minutes.
