INSTANT POT FIESTA CHICKEN RECIPES

Steps:

• Stir together the salsa, chicken broth, taco sauce, taco seasoning, garlic powder, and sazón seasoning (if using) in the Instant Pot. Add the chicken breasts.
• Secure the lid, move the valve to the sealing position, and hit Manual or Pressure Cook on High Pressure for 12 minutes. Quick release when done.
• Place the chicken in a bowl and shred it using two forks (or a hand mixer to really make it easy).
• After the chicken is shredded, mix in as much of the sauce as you’d like to keep the chicken moist and juicy. Serve with tortillas or taco shells and your favorite taco fixings—like sour cream, shredded cheese, guacamole, tomatoes, and more of the fiesta sauce the chicken cooked in.

Steps:

• Combine rice, water, taco seasoning, and tomato powder in a 7x3-inch cake pan or oven-safe bowl. Stir to ensure rice is covered.
• Toss chicken breast pieces with garlic salt and black pepper in a bowl.
• Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Melt butter. Add salsa and chicken; stir to combine. Pour black beans and corn into separate small silicone bowls. Place bowls on opposite sides of the Instant Pot®, nestling the chicken between them. Place elevated trivet into the Instant Pot®. Set the container of rice on top of the trivet. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 4 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 11 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Remove rice from trivet. Remove trivet. Blend corn and black beans with the chicken.
• Add equal amounts of rice to 4 serving bowls. Top with chicken mixture.
