Instant Pot Chicken Burrito Bowls

Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 small onion, diced

  • 1 clove garlic minced or put through a garlic press

  • 1 teaspoon chili powder

  • ½ teaspoon Kosher salt

  • 1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces

  • 1 (15.5 ounce) can black beans, rinsed (preferably low or no salt added)

  • 1 cup salsa (I used Pace Medium Salsa)

  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can low sodium chicken broth

  • ¼ cup chopped cilantro for serving, optional

  • ¼ cup grated Cheddar cheese for serving

Preparation:

  1. Set Instant Pot to the sauté setting. Add the onion and cook until soft, about two minutes.

  2. Add the garlic and cook an additional minute. Add chili powder and salt. Stir to combine.

  3. Add the chicken, black beans, rice, and salsa. Stir. Pour chicken broth over the mixture.

  4. Lock the lid in place. Set a 10-minute cook time on high pressure.

  5. Once the cook time completes, quickly release the pressure.

  6. Open the lid away from your face. Stir with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula.

  7. Serve with chopped cilantro and grated cheddar.
