This salsa chicken Instant Pot recipe makes an easy weeknight meal even easier. Frozen chicken breasts are combined with taco seasoning and salsa for a tasty Mexican-themed meal. You can use the meat for tacos, burrito bowls, or as a topping for baked potatoes. So many possibilities! I used this the first night for chicken quesadillas. The second night I used it as a topping for baked potatoes with shredded cheese, pickled jalapeños, and sour cream.

Ingredients

  • frozen skinless, boneless chicken breast halves: 1 pound
  • packet taco seasoning mix: 1 piece (1 ounce)
  • salsa: 0.5 cup
  • low-sodium chicken broth: 0.5 cup
