03 Method

Step 1

Place chicken in Instant Pot. In a small bowl whisk together chili powder, cumin, coriander, and 1/4 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper (some bottled salsas are super salty that's why I recommend only starting with 1/4 tsp then adding more later).
Step 2

Sprinkle mixture evenly over both sides of chicken and sprinkle garlic over chicken, then pour salsa over chicken to cover. Close lid, turn vent to "sealing" and set Instant pot to "poultry" or "manual" setting then set to 13 minutes. If using a slow cooker cook 5 - 6 hours on low heat.
Step 3

Once the cycle is complete use the quick-release method according to manufactures instructions. Remove chicken and let cool several minutes on cutting board then shred into pieces and return to juices in instant pot. Sprinkle in cilantro, and toss chicken to coat. Season with more salt to taste if desired.
Step 4

Lift chicken pieces with tongs and allow excess liquid to run off, then place in tortilla shells with listed toppings.
