Jalapeño Corn Chicken Soup Ingredients

fresh jalapeño
chili powder
canned white cannellini beans
chicken stock
boneless skinless chicken breasts
sour cream
cream cheese
How to make Instant Pot Chicken Soup
Once you have your ingredients gathered, turn your Instant Pot to sauté function. Add a drizzle of olive oil and let it heat.
When the oil is hot, add in the chopped onions and garlic and sauté it for a minute or two until the onion turns are translucent. Add the corn and diced jalapenos to the pot and season with salt, black pepper, red chili powder, and cumin powder and give it a quick stir. Turn off the sauté function.
Add the entire can of Cannellini beans with juice, chicken stock and chicken breasts. Place the lid on the pot and turn the knob to seal. Cook under high pressure for 10 minutes.
When the pressure cooking is complete, carefully turn the valve to vent to release the pressure. I recommend using an oven mitt and spatula to turn the knob out of an abundance of caution, so the steam doesn’t burn you.
Open the pot and remove the chicken breasts onto a cutting board. Shred the chicken using two forks and then stir the chicken back into the soup along with the sour cream and cubed cream cheese. Stir until the cream cheese is all melted and smooth.
Soup Garnishes
One of the best parts of this soup is the amazing garnishes. Add as much or as little as you’d like and make the soup your own. This is great for serving family as each person can add what they like.
Avocado – For even more creamy goodness, don’t skip these
Thinly sliced jalapenos – If you love extra spice, don’t forget to add some more peppers
Tortilla chips – Doritos add an amazing bite of cheesy crunch
Sour cream – An extra dollop for an ever richer soup is fantastic
Lime wedges – Lime juice is a must as it helps balance the flavors
Cilantro – A little bit goes a long way!Shredded cheese – For more cheesy flavor, top your bowl of soup with some freshly grated cheddar
