Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 lbs Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs chopped into bite size pieces
  • 3 Tbs EVOO
  • 1 Large Sweet Onion chopped
  • 1 Red Bell Pepper chopped
  • 1 Orange or Yellow Bell Pepper chopped
  • 1 15 oz Can Black Beans drained and rinsed
  • 1 16 oz Jar Salsa
  • 1 tsp Chili Powder
  • 1 tsp Paprika
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp Cumin
  • 1/2 tsp Oregano
  • 1 tsp Sea Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Black Pepper
  • 4 Cups Chicken Broth
  • Toppings of choice such as cheese tortilla chips, avocado, sour cream etc.

Instructions
 

  • Add EVOO to Instant Pot and turn on sauté mode
  • Add Onions and Peppers, sauté 2-3 minutes
  • Press cancel on the Instant Pot
  • Add Chicken, Beans, Salsa, Spices and Chicken Broth
  • Give it a stir to make sure nothing is sticking on the bottom
  • Cover, lock, seal and press the soup button
  • If your Instant Pot doesn't have the soup button, pressure cook high for 30 minutes
  • When cook time ends carefully, with an oven mitt on (or you could use a long spoon) and standing as far back from the steam release valve, turn the valve to the venting position
  • Let all of the steam release, again do not stand near this as the steam can cause severe burns
  • Once the pin drops down carefully open the lid
  • Stir it up and serve with your favorite toppings
  • Enjoy!

Notes

It takes approximately 10 minutes for the Instant Pot to build up pressure before the timer will start.
