Instructions
MAKE IT A FREEZER MEAL
Add all ingredients (except the tortillas and toppings) to one gallon sized freezer bag or re-usable container.
If you choose to store your meal in the freezer, add your salsa chicken bag to a new gallon sized bag. Also add the bag of tortillas.
Lay flat and store in the freezer. This recipe can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
TO COOK (INSTANT POT):
Thaw the meal overnight in the fridge if you froze it.
Pour the salsa and raw chicken mixture into the Instant Pot insert.
Close the lid, place the pressure release valve to seal, and set the Instant Pot to 12 minutes.
Quick release the pressure.
If your chicken breasts are quite large, you may need to put them back in for 2-3 minutes to get them to shred.
Shred the chicken in the salsa mixture.
Build your tacos!
