Spicy Instant Pot salsa verde chicken with chiles, garlic, and cilantro - perfect for tacos or rice.
Ingredients:
  • 2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 1.5 cups green salsa (salsa verde)
  • 1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chilies
  • 1 medium white onion, halved and thinly sliced
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
  • 8 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (1.41 ounce) package sazon seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 bunch cilantro, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice, or to taste
Instructions:
  • In a multi-functional pressure cooker, mix chicken, salsa, chiles, onion, jalapeno, garlic, sazon, cumin, salt, and pepper. Seal the lid, select high pressure for 10 minutes following the manufacturer's instructions, then wait for pressure to build for 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Follow the manufacturer's instructions to naturally release pressure for 10 to 40 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
  • Choose the Saute function and shred the chicken using 2 forks; simmer until the sauce reaches your preferred consistency. Season with additional salt and pepper, then top with cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice before serving.
