Instant Pot Chicken Taco Chili
Chicken Taco Chili, made with chicken, beans, corn and tomatoes seasoned with taco seasoning is one of my most popular slow cooker recipes, which I just remade for Instant Pot after several requests! This recipe couldn’t be easier, made with ingredients you probably already have in your pantry.
Ingredients
- olive oil spray
- 1 small onion (chopped)
- 1 15.5 oz can black beans, not drained
- 1 15.5-oz can kidney beans, not drained
- 1 8-oz can tomato sauce
- 10 oz package frozen corn kernels
- 2 10 oz cans diced tomatoes w/chilies (Rotel)
- 24 oz 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 4 ounce can chopped green chili peppers
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 packet reduced sodium taco seasoning or homemade (see below)
For the taco seasoning:
- 1 1/2 tablespoons cumin
- 1 1/2 tablespoons chili powder
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Press saute and spray the insert with oil, add the onion and stir, cooking until soft and golden, about 4 to 5 minutes.
- Press cancel to prevent getting a burn notice, then deglaze the pot with 1/4 cup water.
- Add the chicken and season both sides with half of the taco seasoning.
- Add the beans, corn, green chilies, then finish with the diced tomatoes and tomato sauce.
- Add 1/2 cup water plus the remaining taco seasonings and gently stir without moving the chicken.
