Southwest Chicken Chili {Instant Pot Recipe}

I made this super flavorful Southwest Chicken Chili in my Instant Pot today.  Sometimes my recipes flop and I don’t post but sometimes they are rockin’ like this one.  It seriously turned out amazingly good.

This recipe from start to finish almost took no time. It was easy.  Most everything can be just dropped into the Instant Pot and then we can let the pot do the magic. I say most because it’s important that we never put cream cheese in during the pressurizing stage. The chances of this soup burning or becoming too thick is something that may happen.

Add this recipe to your weeknight dinner line-up!
