Instant Pot White Chicken Chili Recipe Ingredients

Ingredient List:
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 small onion
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into cubes
1 cup red salsa
1/2 cup green Verde salsa
3 tablespoons or 1 packet taco seasoning
1 small can of diced green chiles
1 can of diced tomatoes
3-4 cans of Great Northern Beans (or Cannellini beans)
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1-2 cups chicken broth

How To Make Instant Pot White Chicken Chili

Set your Instant Pot to the sauté function.

Add the olive oil and allow to heat up. Add onions and garlic and cook 2-3 minutes or until garlic is fragrant and onions are translucent.

Add chicken and cook until no longer pink. Turn Instant Pot off.

Add chicken broth. I like mine more like soup, so I add two cups. If you like it more like chili, only add one cup.

Add beans to Instant Pot.

Add taco seasoning, red and green salsas, green chilies, tomatoes and tomato paste. (I love green chilies and add 2 cans.)

Mix everything together. Close and lock the lid on the Instant Pot and make sure the vent is closed. Set Instant Pot to 15 minutes. Once the 15 minutes are up, allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes. Open the vent and release the remaining pressure.

Favorite Toppings For White Chicken Chili

This chili is great served without any additional toppings, but sometimes I like to add a little something extra! Some of my favorite toppings to add are shredded cheddar cheese or Pepper Jack cheese, crumbled tortilla chips or corn chips, a dollop of sour cream, green onions, avocado and sliced Jalapenos.

What To Serve With White Chicken Chili

One of my favorite things to serve with this White Chicken Chili is buttered cornbread muffins. So good! My dad would always crumble cornbread into his soups and chili. You could also serve this over a bowl of rice with some crusty bread.
