Instant Pot White Chicken Chili Freezer Pack
Prep all of the ingredients for this hearty chili and freeze them until you’re ready to cook it for a fast meal. All you have to do is pop the frozen ingredients into your multicooker and turn it on. Using a pressure cooker to make this warming pot of chili results in extra-tender chicken that’s easy to shred. The addition of chopped zucchini and corn gives each bowl a nutritional boost.
Ingredients:
- 1 medium zucchini, chopped
- 1½ cups frozen corn kernels
- 1 large yellow onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 (4-ounce) can diced mild green chiles, undrained
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon plus ¾ teaspoon salt, divided
- ½ teaspoon ground pepper
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 1¾ cups dry great northern beans
- 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- ½ cup sour cream, plus more for garnish
- ⅓ cup chopped fresh cilantro, plus more for garnish
- 3 tablespoons lime juice, plus wedges for serving
- diced avocado for garnish (optional)
Directions:
- To prep and freeze: Combine chopped zucchini, 1½ cups corn, chopped onion, minced garlic, undrained chiles, 1 tablespoon chili powder, 2 teaspoons cumin, 1 teaspoon oregano, 1 teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon pepper in a 64-ounce round, freezer-safe container. Arrange chicken thighs on top, then layer on 1¾ cups dry beans. Seal and freeze until ready to use, up to 3 months.
- To cook: Let the frozen soup mix stand at room temperature for 10 minutes. Invert the frozen soup mix into a multicooker (the beans should be at the bottom of the pot). Add 4 cups broth. Lock the lid in place and cook at High pressure for 33 minutes. Allow the pressure to release naturally, about 20 minutes.
- Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and shred. Return the shredded chicken to the pot. Stir in ½ cup sour cream, ⅓ cup cilantro, 3 tablespoons lime juice and the remaining ¾ teaspoon salt. Serve topped with additional cilantro, lime wedges, sour cream and/or diced avocado, if desired.
