  • Turn Instant Pot on to the saute function. Saute onions and bell pepper, about 5 minutes. Add in spices and saute for 1 minute-- to bring out their flavors. Turn off saute function.
  • Place whole chicken breasts on top, and add in both cans of green chilies, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, black beans, corn, chicken stock, and salt.
