  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • Pour the olive oil into the instant pot and let it heat
  • Once the oil is hot, pour the chicken into the pot and mix until the meat is sealed.
  • Stop the Instant Pot and change the settings to Soup. Set the timer to 12 minutes

  • Release the pressure and open the lead. 
  • Turn back your Instant Pot to the Saute option and let it run until little water is left. 
  • Now incorporate the bell peppers and the onion. 
  • Don't let the vegetable get smushy. Once veggies are tender but still firm, you can turn off the Instant pot. 
  • Adjust salt and pepper to your taste
