Instant Pot Chicken Taco Chili

Instant Pot Chicken Taco Chili is an easy meal that only takes a couple minutes to throw everything in the Instant Pot or Crock Pot, set the timer, and a delicious meal is ready for you.

Chicken Taco Chili is filled with tender pieces of shredded chicken, corn, black beans, garbanzo beans, in a flavorful tomato base sauce. It’s great on its own with some tortilla chips on the side, or with rice (cauliflower rice), or even on top of a sweet potato. I love meals that I can add everything together and it cooks at the same time. Just makes it that much easier when you’re running short on time.One of my favorite food bloggers is Gina from Skinny Taste, her recipes are easy, healthy, and always a hit with the family. I modified her recipe for Chicken Taco Chili, and replaced kidney beans with garbanzo beans, since we enjoy those more.  I also cooked it in the Instant Pot and had dinner ready in about 45 min. Not bad for an easy weeknight meal.I’ve mentioned before that my daughter is a picky eater. I use to get really frustrated with her eating, but eventually realized that she will eat what she likes and I can at least offer her different foods.  She loves garbanzo beans, so first I offered her a bite of just garbanzos, and then surprisingly she decided to eat the chili! My son pretty much inhaled this chili 🙂The instructions could not be easier, everything gets cooked the same time and you shred the chicken right in the pot once it’s done. If you don’t have an Instant Pot, which I highly recommend, then the same instructions apply for a slow cooker, but for 8 hours on low or 4 hours on high. And if you love Instant Pot meals, here is the archive link to all my Instant Pot recipes. Enjoy!
