Directions

  1. Spray the inside of a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) with cooking spray. Pour in 1/2 the chicken broth. Add chicken breasts, sprinkle with taco seasoning. Add beans, corn, salsa, and rice.

  2. Pour remaining broth into the pot, making sure rice is submerged. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions, set timer for 22 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.

  3. Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 12 minutes.

  4. Carefully pull out chicken breasts, let rest on a cutting board. Fluff rice lightly to keep it from clumping together and cover with lid for 5 minutes more. Shred chicken with 2 forks in the meantime.

  5. Serve rice in bowls topped with shredded chicken.
