Instructions
Creating Instant Pot White Chicken Chili is straightforward and rewarding. Follow these simple steps to achieve perfectly cooked chili:
1. Prepare Chicken: Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and season them with salt and pepper.
2. Sauté Aromatics: Set your Instant Pot to the sauté function. Add a splash of oil, then sauté the diced onion and minced garlic until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
3. Add Chicken: Add the seasoned chicken pieces to the pot. Cook until slightly browned, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4. Combine Ingredients: Pour in the chicken broth, followed by the drained beans, diced green chilies, corn, cumin, chili powder, oregano, and cayenne pepper.
5. Pressure Cook: Close the lid and set the valve to sealing. Select the manual function and cook on high pressure for 10 minutes.
6. Release Pressure: Once cooking is complete, allow the Instant Pot to naturally release pressure for 10 minutes, then switch to a quick release for any remaining pressure.
7. Add Cream Cheese: Open the lid and stir in the softened cream cheese until fully incorporated. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
8. Serve: Ladle the chili into bowls. Top with fresh cilantro, shredded cheese, and avocado slices if desired.
