How to make this recipe

1 – Add the white chili beans, black beans, corn, petite diced tomatoes and tomatoes with green chilies, chicken broth, frozen chicken breast and taco seasoning to your instant pot.

2 – Place lid on top, latch into place and turn valve to the seal position. Cook on high pressure for 15 minutes.

3 – Once your instant pot beeps, allow pot to naturally release the steam for about 10 minutes. Then quick release the remaining steam.

4 – Once pressure is fully released, carefully remove the lid. Take out your chicken breasts and use a meat thermometer to make sure your chicken is at least 165 degrees. If it is not at least 165 degrees, place it back in your pot and set the time for 2 mins.

5 – Using two forks, shred your chicken then place it back in your pot and give it a good stir.

How do I store my leftover taco soup?

Placed the cooled soup in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Can I freeze taco soup?

Yes! Place the soup in a covered airtight container or heavy-duty freezer bag. Properly stored, the soup will be good for up to 6 months.

Please Note

The Instant Pot needs to come to pressure before the cooking time starts, similar to an oven that needs to preheat. The cooking time doesn’t actually start until pressure builds, which can take anywhere from 5-15 minutes, sometimes longer depending on how full the pot is and how much liquid there is inside. Once it reaches pressure the Instant Pot will beep, and the cook time will begin to count down. Please, make sure to consider that extra time when planning your meal.
