Notes
Nutrition information may vary based on type of salsa used.Feel like your salsa is a little watery? Toss the shredded chicken back in the juices in the Instant Pot, then turn on the saute function for a few minutes (stirring occasionally) to reduce the liquid.Don't have an Instant Pot but still want salsa chicken? I don't blame you! Use the same ingredients but place in a slow cooker on low for 3-4 hours for fresh chicken or 5-6 hours for frozen chicken.
