These Instant Pot Hawaiian Chicken Tacos are out of this WORLD. Juicy pineapple and spiced chicken crisped under the broiler, tucked into tortillas, and rolled up with creamy jalapeño ranch slaw.

Done

Serve chicken in warm tortillas with slaw and an extra drizzle of jalapeño ranch, slices of avocado, extra pineapple, cilantro, red onion, etc.

I absolutely loved this recipe! It was amazing and quick and easy, restaurant quality. Pleased the whole family. Will make again and not a thing beside maybe doubling the recipe!!

I omit most of the water and oil from the slaw dressing, it was just to thin. The flavor is out of this world though. This is in the monthly rotation.

Delicious! I made it in my crockpot and used chicken breasts instead of thighs because it’s what I had on hand.

Looks amazing! Could we do this in a crockpot vs instant?? Thank you!

Oh man, Lindsay, this is another WINNER! Thank you so much!

We left out the seeds and ribs of the peppers, and used half the siracha. It was a very mild spice level. Those who wanted more spice, added siracha to their own tacos.

My family absolutely  LOVES this meal. We use Naan bread instead of tortillas! It is super tasty and incredibly  filling! Thank you again for the recipe

This looks so amazing! I ran to the store to get the ingredients and am making this tonight for dinner. I love using my instant pot for meals so I really appreciate this new recipe.

Absolutely delicious! A hit at our house. Had to make with chic breasts because no thighs...still swoon worthy! Thanks, Lindsay!

These are delicious! Very impressed, and I can't wait to make the tinga tacos (or bowls) next!

These were so deliciously different!!!  We made them according to the Instapot instructions and after every bite, we looked at each other and said, "this is amazing!"  The dill was a unique flavour to a taco experience. Will definitely be adding this to our favourites list!

This recipe has become one of our favorites. So good!
I was wondering, how long can we keep the sauce in the fridge?
Thanks!

Made this for dinner tonight.  It is delicious!  Hard to describe the taste -- calling it "Hawaiian" seems almost misleading  -- the flavor is much more complex (no disrespect to Hawaiian flavors!) than that would suggest.

Instant Pot Hawaiian Chicken Tacos with Jalapeño Ranch Slaw

I made 2 batches in the IP, and broiled all of it together.  9 people devoured it, with sides. All 9 loved it....definitely a keeper, and inexpensive to put together. I made the sauce 2 days in advance,  to meld the flavors...delicious.

Ashley when I don’t have the fresh herbs on hand I mix the first 5 ingredients with a 1/2 packet of ranch dressing mix (in the packet). Not exactly the same but it has worked for us!!

This is one of my favorite recipes! I’ve always get rave reviews from everyone!

Jalapeño Ranch is perfect as a dressing, dip or sauce. It has a thick sour cream base, and is lightened up with fresh cilantro and lime juice and a hint of spice.

tsp lime juice (freshly squeezed)
