Instant Pot Chicken Soup With Tortilla
Ingredients
  • 1 (32 fluid ounce) container chicken broth
  • 1 (15 ounce) can fire-roasted diced tomatoes
  • 1 1/2 cups frozen corn
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1/2 cup cauliflower rice
  • 1/4 cup quinoa
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 3 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 pound chicken breast
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil for frying
  • 2 (8 inch) corn tortillas, cut into bite-sized strips
Instructions
1
Combine chicken broth, diced tomatoes, frozen corn kernels, chopped onion, cauliflower rice, cooked quinoa, minced garlic, chili powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper in a versatile pressure cooker. Add boneless, skinless chicken breast to the pot. Close and secure the lid tightly. Set the pressure cooker according to the manufacturer's guidelines, selecting high pressure and a 7-minute timer. Allow for 10-15 minutes to build up the internal pressure.
2
While waiting, heat a neutral-tasting oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add tortilla strips and cook until they turn golden brown, approximately 1 minute. Use a slotted spoon to remove the tortilla strips and drain them on paper towels.
3
After releasing the pressure naturally, according to the manufacturer's instructions, wait for about 15 minutes. Then, use the quick-release method to release any remaining pressure, taking around 5 minutes. Once the lid is unlocked and removed, take out the chicken breast and shred or cut it into bite-sized pieces.
4
Return the shredded or chopped chicken to the pot, allowing it to warm up. Ladle the soup into individual bowls and top with crispy fried tortilla strips.
