Equipment

  • pressure cooker
  • cutting board
  • sharp knife

Ingredients

  • 4 cups chopped chicken breasts I cut mine into about 1-inch pieces. You can also use chicken thighs if you prefer.
  • 3 15 ounce cans black beans
  • 2 15 ounce cans of corn If you use fresh or frozen, it is about 3 cups of corn.
  • 1 ½-2 cups enchilada sauce
  • ½ onions, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 2 teaspoons cumin
  • 1-2 teaspoons cayenne pepper Depends on how spicy you like it. If you aren't into spicy food, omit the cayenne.
  • 2 cups chicken or veggie stock
  • salt and pepper to taste I like to add 1 teaspoon of salt to begin with, then add more after it is cooked as needed/.
  • ¾ cup evaporated milk
  • Toppings of choice I like avocadoes, cheese, jalapenos, and tortillas or tortilla chips.

Instructions

  • Read all the way through before starting.
  • Add all ingredients, BUT THE EVAPORATED MILK to the pressure cooker. Mix briefly. Then secure the lid and seal for pressure. Pressure cook on high for 15 minutes.
