- 2 cups (550g) salsa
- 2 pounds (907g) chicken breasts boneless and skinless
- 12 corn tortillas or flour tortillas taco shells
- taco toppings, as desired cheese, avocado, tomatoes, sour cream, radishes, lime wedges
Pour salsa into the Instant Pot insert and put the chicken breasts on top.
Place the lid on the Instant Pot, turn valve to sealing, and set to manual pressure / high pressure pressure for 10 minutes.
When done, allow for a 5-minute natural pressure release, then perform a quick pressure release.
Remove the chicken breast from the Instant Pot and shred using two forks or a hand mixer. Place shredded chicken back into Instant Pot and stir into the salsa.
Assemble your chicken tacos by adding shredded chicken into tortillas and topping with shredded cheese, avocado slices, tomatoes, and radishes.
- Use thawed chicken breast or frozen chicken.
- If the cooked shredded chicken is not as moist as you would like, you can add additional salsa, chicken broth, or water before serving.
- The cooking time listed does not include the time it takes for the Instant Pot to come up to pressure, or for the pressure to release.

- Storage - keep cooked shredded chicken in the fridge for up to 4 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
