Ingredients

2 chicken breast frozen
½ cups brown rice uncooked
½ cup dry black beans not soaked
15 oz diced tomatoes no sugar added
2 tbsp garlic Minced
2 tbsp ground cumin
1 tbsp Onion powder
2 tbsp Chili powder
1 ½ cups chicken broth low sodium

Optional Toppings

romaine lettuce
cheddar cheese
salsa or pico de gallo
avocado

Instructions

Combine all the ingredients in the Instant Pot. Lock the lid into place and seal the pressure valve. 2 chicken breast, ½ cups brown rice, ½ cup dry black beans, 15 oz diced tomatoes, 2 tbsp garlic, 2 tbsp ground cumin, 1 tbsp Onion powder, 2 tbsp Chili powder, 1 ½ cups chicken broth
Using the manual mode cook on high pressure for 25 minutes. When done release by turning the pressure valve to open, be sure to use a long spoon or a silicone oven mitt to move the valve. *If you notice that your beans are not done yet, do a natural pressure release.
Open the lid and remove the chicken to shred. I use my mixer to shred chicken–it's SO easy to do! Just make sure to stand right there and watch because the chicken goes from shredded to ground pretty quickly.
Add the chicken back into the Instant Pot, stir well.
Measure and place the romaine lettuce in your bowl. Top with 1/4 of the beans, rice, and shredded chicken. Measure out and sprinkle with cheese, salsa, and avocado if you'd like! romaine lettuce, cheddar cheese, salsa , avocado
