Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Instant Pot Verde Chicken Posole.
Step 1
To start your delicious posole, grab your blender and toss in the tomatillos, poblano pepper, jalapeno pepper, fresh cilantro, zesty lime juice, and minced garlic.
Step 2
Blend everything together until you have a smooth and vibrant salsa verde, then set it aside to let those flavors mingle.
Step 3
Next, fire up your Instant Pot and select the 'Sauté' function.
Step 4
Drizzle in some olive oil, then add in the cubed chicken, chopped onion, fragrant Mexican oregano, and ground cumin.
Step 5
Sauté this mixture for about five minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is lightly browned and the kitchen is filled with mouthwatering aromas.
Step 6
Now, pour that beautiful salsa verde into the pot, followed by the drained hominy and chicken broth.
Step 7
Give everything a good stir to ensure all those flavors are well combined.
Step 8
Once that’s done, securely close and lock the lid of your Instant Pot.
Step 9
Choose the 'Manual' function and set the timer for 20 minutes.
Step 10
As the pressure builds—this will take around 15 minutes—take a moment to appreciate the delicious meal that’s coming together.
Step 11
When the timer goes off, carefully release the pressure using the quick-release method as per your Instant Pot’s instructions; this should take about five minutes.
Step 12
Once the pressure is fully released, unlock and remove the lid, revealing your hearty posole.
Step 13
Ladle the warm, comforting posole into bowls and serve it hot, ready to be enjoyed by family and friends.
Step 14
This dish is not just a meal; it’s a celebration of flavors that brings everyone together!.
