Equipment

  • 1 Instant Pot/Electric Pressure Cooker

Ingredients

  • 30 oz great northern beans - drained and rinsed
  • 2 cups corn - frozen - white and yellow mix or just yellow
  • ½ cup onion yellow - diced
  • 4 oz diced green chiles
  • 1 tbsp minced garlic
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 lb chicken breast - boneless skinless
  • 4 oz cream cheese - cubed
  • 1 ¼ cup chicken broth

For toppings: avocado, serrano peppers, cilantro

    Instructions

    • Add the beans and corn to the instant pot, followed by the onion, garlic, green chiles, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper.
    • Place the chicken breasts on top of the ingredients and then add the cream cheese.
    • Pour the chicken broth in last.
    • Place the lid on top and ensure that the valve is in the sealed position.
    • Cook on high pressure for 15 minutes followed by a natural release for 10 minutes before releasing remaining pressure. The instant pot takes approximately 10 minutes to come to pressure and another 5-7 to release.
    • Once the pin drops, open the lid and remove the chicken and place it in a small bowl, use two forks to shred it.
    • Stir the chili well until all of the ingredients are combined and the cream cheese has melted.
    • Add the shredded chicken back to the instant pot and stir.
    • Serve warm with the optional toppings.

    Notes

    Additional toppings such as tortilla chips, sour cream, chopped onions, and jalapenos will pair nicely with this chili.
