Prep Time

This recipe can be prepared in about 10 minutes. You will need to allow time for the Instant Pot to come to pressure, which can take up to 15 minutes, depending on the size of the pot and the amount of liquid in the recipe.

Cook Time

Cook time for this recipe is about 10 minutes. Once the Instant Pot has reached pressure, it will take about 10 minutes to cook the chicken. Then, you will need to allow time for the pressure to naturally release before opening the pot.

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup chicken stock or water
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 8-12 small corn tortillas
  • Toppings of your choice (shredded cheese, diced tomatoes, lettuce, sour cream, etc.)

Instructions

1. Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the Instant Pot. Sprinkle the garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, onion powder, oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper over the chicken.

2. Pour the chicken stock or water into the Instant Pot. Place the lid on the pot and make sure the valve is set to “sealing”.

3. Select the “Manual” or “Pressure Cook” setting and set the timer for 10 minutes.

4. Once the timer goes off, allow the pot to naturally release the pressure for 10 minutes. Then, carefully turn the valve to “venting” to release any remaining pressure.

5. Carefully open the lid and shred the chicken with two forks. Add the lime juice, cilantro, and any other desired seasonings. Stir and let the chicken sit for 5 minutes.

6. Serve the chicken in small corn tortillas and top with your favorite toppings. Enjoy!
