Step 1

Arrange the chicken in a single layer in your pressure cooker.

Step 2

Sprinkle the seasoning on both sides of the chicken, making sure to rearrange the pieces in a single layer on the bottom.

Step 3

Pour the salsa evenly over the chicken pieces.

Step 4

Lock the lid on the pressure cooker. If you’re using an Instant Pot, press the “Manual” or "Pressure Cook" button and program it to cook for 7-9 minutes under high pressure for chicken breasts (cook for 7 minutes if the breasts are 6 ounces, increase to 8 or 9 minutes if the breasts are bigger) and 10 minutes for thighs. If you're using bone-in thighs, I would increase the cooking time to 15 minutes. (For those of you using a stovetop pressure cooker, crank the heat to high to bring the contents to high pressure. Once high pressure is reached, reduce the heat to low, or just enough to maintain high pressure. Set a timer for 6 minutes for breasts and 9 minutes for thighs.)

Step 5

When the chicken is finished cooking, immediately release the pressure manually. To deal with all the released steam, I position my Instant Pot below the stovetop exhaust vent before I turn the valve. If you are cooking thighs, you don't have to release the pressure manually—natural release is a-OK!

Step 6

Remove the lid right away and transfer the chicken to a bowl to prevent overcooking.

Step 7

Use two forks to shred the chicken. Taste the cooking liquid and adjust with salt and pepper if necessary.

Step 8

Pour the cooking liquid on top of the chicken and toss well to coat.

Step 9

Serve on top of your favorite grain-free tortillas or on lettuce wraps. Garnish with your favorite taco toppings and dig in!
