Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Instant Pot Chicken Tortilla Soup.
Step 1
To create a delicious and comforting soup in your Instant Pot, start by adding the chicken broth, diced tomatoes with green chiles, chicken breast, black beans, enchilada sauce, frozen corn, diced onion, minced garlic, ground cumin, salt, black pepper, and chili powder into the pot.
Step 2
Once everything is combined, securely close and lock the lid.
Step 3
Select the Poultry setting and set the timer for 15 minutes.
Step 4
As the pot heats up, it will take about 10 to 15 minutes for the pressure to build, filling your kitchen with enticing aromas.
Step 5
When the cooking time is up, let the pressure release naturally for about 10 minutes—this step allows the flavors to meld beautifully.
Step 6
Afterward, carefully unlock and remove the lid, taking in the delightful scent of your soup.
Step 7
Gently lift out the chicken breast and shred it using two forks; this is where the magic happens as the chicken becomes tender and flavorful.
Step 8
Return the shredded chicken to the pot and give everything a good stir to combine.
Step 9
Now, it’s time to serve! Ladle the warm, hearty soup into individual bowls and sprinkle some crushed tortilla chips on top for that perfect crunch.
Step 10
Enjoy your cozy bowl of goodness, and don’t forget to share it with family and friends!.
