Equipment

  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Instant Pot

Ingredients

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 yellow onion (chopped)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2 15 oz cans cannellini beans (drained and rinsed)
  • 1 4 oz can diced green chilies
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup frozen corn
  • 1/2 cup plain greek yogurt or light sour cream
  • monterary jack cheese, cilantro, lime, avocado slices (optional for topping)

Instructions

  1. Set your instant pot to saute mode and add the olive oil. Once hot, add the chopped onion and garlic and saute for 2-3 minutes to soften.
  2. Next, add your chicken breasts and brown on each side for about 2 minutes per side.
  3. Scrape the bottom of the pot with a fork and stir in the drained and rinsed beans, green chilies, chicken broth, cumin, oregano, chili powder, and salt and pepper.
  4. Secure the instant pot lid and pressure cook for 10 minutes. Allow a natural release for 10 additional minutes before releasing the remaining pressure.
  5. Once the pin drops, remove the instant pot lid and remove the chicken breasts to shred them with a fork and knife.
  6. Place the chicken back in the pot and stir in the frozen corn and Greek yogurt. Feel free to add a little extra for desired creaminess.
  7. Garnish with cheese, herbs, and avocado, and enjoy!
  8. Any leftover white bean chicken chili can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
