Freezer to Instant Pot Chicken or Steak Fajitas

Serves: 4, Prep Time: 15 minutes, Total Time: 20 minutes.

Ingredients

• 1 lb. chicken breast or chicken thighs

• 1 lb. beefsteak

• 3 bell peppers slices (yellow, red, or orange)

• 1 large yellow onion sliced

• 1 can or carton of diced tomatoes (liquid included)

• 1 jalapeno diced (seeds removed)

• 1-2 tbsp. taco seasoning

• 1 tsp. salt

• ½ tsp. pepper

• 2 cloves of garlic

• 2 tbsp. lime zest

• 2 tbsp. fresh lime juice (juice of one lime)

Directions

1. Instant Pot (cooking from frozen directions).

2. Thaw in the refrigerator in the morning. You can also put in directly from freezer, just add 5 minutes to the cooking time if it is not thawed at all.

3. Add 1 cup of beef or chicken broth to the Instant Pot before cooking.

Chef's Tips: I like to also make this in the Instant Pot fresh. I double the recipe–cook the meat and put the meat and fresh veggies and seasoning in a freezer bag. Add 1 cup of chicken or bean stock to the Instant Pot. Cook for 8 minutes on high, quick release.

If you make this dish fresh to put in the freezer, add 1 cup of stock to the Instant Pot before cooking.
