INSTANT POT MEXICAN CHICKEN

Feel free to adjust the spices as you prefer. Make it more or less spicy. Add oregano or change the cumin amount, etc.. You can also just replace the spices for 1 bag of taco seasoning if you prefer. Chicken thigh or leg meat will be juicer than breast meat, but if you prefer, the breast meat still comes out quite nice. We'll usually prefer boneless, skinless but feel free to use whatever you have available.

Categories     Main Course     Salad

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pounds chicken (, preferrably boneless and skinless (*see head note))
1 cup tomato sauce ( or salsa)
2 Tablespoons Worcestershire sauce ( or soy sauce)
1 Tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt (, or more to taste)
Fresh cracked black pepper (, to taste)
1/2 teaspoon chipotle powder (, or to taste (optional, for spicy flavor))

Steps:

  • Add everything into Instant Pot (chicken, tomato sauce or salsa, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, salt & pepper and optional chipotle powder). Stir to combine all the spices into the sauce.
  • Close the lid, set to high pressure, and after the pressure cooker reaches full pressure, cook for about 15 minutes *depending on size of chicken & preferred doneness. (These are the steps we did for our Instant Pot: Press the "Manual" button. Set the time to 15 minutes and our Instant Pot starts up automatically, counting down the timer after it reaches pressure.)
  • Take the chicken pieces out of the Instant Pot, cut into 1-2 inch pieces, then place back in the Instant Pot. Shed with a couple forks to break up the chicken.
  • Taste the chicken and add more salt if needed. Serve in tacos, on salads, in quesadillas, etc.

PRESSURE COOKER WHOLE CHICKEN



Pressure Cooker Whole Chicken image

Once you make a whole chicken in the pressure cooker, you'll never want to roast one in the oven again. Pressure cooked whole chickens are hands-off way to make an amazing meal and come out fork-tender and perfectly moist every time. This recipe has a bit of a kick, but you can use this same method and your own favorite chicken seasonings if you prefer.

Provided by fabeveryday

Categories     Whole Chicken

Time 1h25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 ½ teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon dried thyme
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
½ teaspoon freshly ground white pepper
½ teaspoon garlic powder
1 (3 1/2) pound whole roasting chicken
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 cup chicken stock

Steps:

  • Combine salt, paprika, cayenne, onion powder, thyme, black pepper, white pepper, and garlic powder together in a small bowl. Rub the outside of the chicken and inside the cavity generously with the seasoning mixture.
  • Turn on an electric pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Pour oil into the pot and allow to get hot, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Brown chicken in the hot oil on each side (breast side and back side) for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove chicken from the pot and set it aside on a plate. Cancel Sauté function.
  • Pour chicken stock into the pot and scrape the bottom with a wooden spoon to loosen any browned bits.
  • Place a steamer rack trivet in the bottom of the pressure cooker pot, then place the whole chicken, breast side up, on top of the trivet.
  • Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 25 minutes. Allow about 6 minutes for pressure to build.
  • Let pressure release naturally according to manufacturer's instructions, 25 to 35 minutes. Unlock lid and remove.
  • Open the lid and carefully remove the chicken from the pressure cooker. Allow the chicken to rest for 10 minutes before carving.

  • Pour chicken broth into the instant pot and place the chicken breasts side by side into the broth. Mix seasonings together in a small bowl and then evenly sprinkle over the top of the chicken.
  • Place the lid onto the pressure cooker and lock into place. Turn on instant pot, select "Pressure Cook" setting, set to "high pressure" for 10 minutes, and start. Allow to come to pressure, depending on how much chicken is inside, can take 8-10 minutes. After it has come to pressure it will cook for 10 minutes.
  • Once the timer has expired and the chicken has finished cooking, do not touch it. Allow the pressure to release naturally. This should take about 10-12 minutes. Once the float valve is all the way down, signaling the pressure has released, carefully open the instant pot.
  • You can shred the chicken inside of the pot, but the sides will be very hot. I opt to use tongs to remove the chicken breast and place onto a cutting board to shred with two forks. Once you have shredded the chicken, I add it back into the pot, and mix it all up with the delicious juices.
