Healthy Instant Pot White Chicken Chili is a comforting, protein-packed dish made with tender chicken, white beans, green chilies, and a creamy, flavorful broth—all cooked quickly in the Instant Pot.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 (4 oz) can diced green chilies
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground coriander (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 (15 oz) cans white beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt or light sour cream
  • 1/2 cup frozen corn (optional)
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • Fresh cilantro and avocado slices for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Set Instant Pot to sauté mode. Add olive oil and cook onion for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute.
  2. Stir in green chilies, cumin, oregano, chili powder, coriander, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1 more minute.
  3. Add chicken breasts, white beans, and chicken broth. Stir to combine.
  4. Seal the lid and set to Pressure Cook (Manual) on high for 15 minutes.
  5. Allow a natural pressure release for 10 minutes, then manually release remaining pressure.
  6. Remove the chicken, shred with two forks, and return it to the pot.
  7. Stir in Greek yogurt and corn (if using), and heat through for 2-3 minutes on sauté mode if needed.
  8. Add lime juice, adjust seasoning to taste, and serve with desired toppings.

Notes

  • For extra creaminess, blend a portion of the beans before cooking or mash some after cooking.
  • To make dairy-free, omit the yogurt or substitute with coconut cream.
  • This chili stores well in the fridge for 4-5 days and freezes beautifully.
