Instant Pot Salsa Verde Chicken Tacos
It’s taco Tuesday and do I have a great recipe for you! Grab your Instant Pot to make these Instant Pot Salsa Verde Chicken Tacos. All you need to make these yummy tacos is some chicken, a jar of salsa verde and a few spices.
First thing you do for this is place 2 lbs of chicken breasts into the bottom of your Instant Pot. Then you are gonna sprinkle some cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt over the chicken. Then you pour the jar of salsa verde salsa over the chicken.
Now you are going to cook this chicken in your Instant Pot for 14 minutes. Then you allow for a natural pressure release for 8 minutes. Last you shred the chicken. Now, it’s time to eat these tacos.
To serve these tacos, place this chicken in your tortillas of choice along with the toppings you prefer. I love some cheese, lettuce, salsa, sour cream, and guacamole. Some pico de gallo would also be wonderful. This chicken is also delicious to use to make a quesadilla. Just make it the same way I make my sweet pork quesadillas and swap the pork for the chicken.
