My family love burritos and these instant pot chicken burrito bowls are another way to enjoy them. It’s just more of a deconstructed way to make them and no tortilla is needed.
This is a fabulous way to make a burrito bowl because it’s all made in one pot, the instant pot that is! It’s ready to go in about 30 minutes. It is a little more involved than most of the instant pot recipes I have shared before, but it’s still super easy to make.
