How To Make Chicken Chili Soup in the Instant Pot®

Rub chicken with chili lime rub, salt and pepper.  Heat the olive oil in the instant pot and add chicken. Saute the chicken on both sides until cooked through, let chicken cool and then shred.  Return chicken to Instant Pot.  Add stock, lime juice and all remaining ingredients. Using a wooden spoon, make sure to scrape any seasoning off the bottom of the pot while stirring. If not scrapped well, you might get a burn notice before the soup is finished.  Seal Pot and cook on high pressure for 15 minutes.  Using the quick release method, release the pressure.  Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with a bit of cheddar cheese and cilantro. Squeeze extra lime in if desired.

Indulge in the cozy goodness of this broccoli and cheese soup. Perfect for chilly autumn and winter days

Is this Chicken Chili Soup Spicy?

The Chili Lime Dry Rub is a little spicy but overall this is not a spicy soup,  If you want it spicy switch the small can of green chiles for 2 small jalapenos that have been seeded and minced.

Benefits to Cooking with an Instant Pot®

Compared to cooking with other appliances, such as roasting in an oven or boiling/steaming on a stovetop, Instant Pot boasts energy savings of up to 70%. Pressure cookers reach temperatures above boiling, and the higher the temperature, the faster the food will cook.

Can Chicken Chili Soup be made in a Slow Cooker?

Yes, make sure to cook on low for 4-6 hours or high for 2-4 hours.  Before serving and eating, make sure the chicken is completely cooked throughout.
