Another meal under 30 minutes and this time in my beloved Instant Pot! This recipe could not be easier. With just a few ingredients, it will be ready in no time!  I love to meal prep with this recipe just because I am able to make so much of it and use it in different ways!

 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts (~2 breasts)
 1 tsp coconut oil
 0.50 cup diced onions
 3 cloves of garlic (minced)
 1 cup salsa (fresh if available)
 8 frozen corn
 1 can drained and rinsed black beans
 1 tsp salt & pepper to taste
1

Turn on you instant pot to the saute feature. Once pot is hot, add the oil, onion, and garlic. Saute for a few minutes or until onions are translucent.

2

Add in the rest of your ingredients (chicken, salt, pepper, salsa, corn, and beans) and mix together.

3

Close the lid and vent on your instant pot. Turn the settings to Manual and set timer to 10 minutes.

4

Natural release the instant pot (once done leave the chicken in the pot for an additional 5 minutes or until the pin at the top of the pot has dropped). Take out the chicken breasts on a plate and shred with 2 forks.

5

Place back in the instant pot and taste for salt and pepper. Enjoy in a burrito or on top of rice!
