Ingredients
Gather these simple ingredients to get started:
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 can (15 oz) white beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 can (15 oz) corn, drained
- 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 lime, juiced
- Fresh cilantro, for garnish
- Shredded cheese and sour cream, for topping (optional)
Instructions
Follow these steps to create your delicious white chicken chili:
- Set your Instant Pot to “Sauté” mode. Add a bit of oil, and once hot, sauté the chopped onions until they become translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
- Add the chicken breasts to the pot, followed by the white beans, corn, chicken broth, cumin, chili powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Give it a good stir to combine all the ingredients.
- Close the lid of the Instant Pot, ensuring the valve is set to sealing. Switch the setting to “Pressure Cook” on high for 10 minutes.
- Once the cooking time is complete, allow for a natural release for 10 minutes, then carefully switch the valve to venting to release any remaining pressure.
- Open the lid, and using two forks, shred the chicken in the pot. Stir in the lime juice and adjust seasoning if necessary.
- Serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro, and top with shredded cheese and sour cream if desired.
