Easy + Delicious Tacos

I’ve been making these tacos in the instant pot or crockpot for years and they’re a family favorite! Super easy to throw everything in and tastes DELICIOUS. Plus, they’re gluten free!

We love making these when we have hectic nights, sometimes I remember early enough to put get the crock pot going.. but lots of times I use the instant pot because it’s so quick. Since there’s so many canned goods involved in this recipe you’re gonna want this handy electric can opener too!

Equipment

  • 1 pressure cooker OR crockpot

Ingredients

FOR INSTANT POT:

  • Layer all canned ingredients on top of the chicken
  • Add taco seasoning and mix together until well combined
  • Turn the instant pot on high pressure and set the time to 20 minutes, make sure the vent it sealed
  • When the timer goes off, vent the seal and remove the lid
  • Shred the chicken (I like to do this with a hand mixer, goes so quick!)
  • Add in 1 brick of cream cheese and stir to combine
  • If there’s too much liquid, hit sauté and cook for 5-10 minutes
  • Serve on warm corn tortillas
  • We like to add avocados, shredded cheese, onions, and sriracha too!

FOR CROCK POT:

  • Place chicken breast and canned ingredients into crockpot
  • Add taco seasoning and mix to combine
