Description

Adapted from a family favourite slow-cooker recipe for the Instant Pot and to incorporate some plant based protein! This is my go-to taco recipe when entertaining as it requires minimal prep work, or dishes! Leftovers taste great on top of rice.

3 boneless skinless chicken breasts

½ cup dried green lentils

⅓ cup of water

1 onion, diced

1 can tomatillo (green) salsa (depending on how liduidy the salsa is, you may need to add some additional water for the pressure cooker up to pressure)

3. Serve on warm corn tortillas with your desired toppings.
