An easy dump-and-go Instant Pot or slow cooker chicken recipe with lots of bold flavor.

Ingredients

  • 4-6 boneless skinless chicken thighs, trimmed of excess fat (frozen or fresh)
  • 1 Tbsp chili powder
  • 2 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • ¼ tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp coriander
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 Tbsp dried onion
  • ¼ cup water
  • ¼ cup fresh lime juice
  • 1 (10 oz) can Rotel (I used mild)

Directions

  1. 1

    Add chicken into Instant Pot. Sprinkle the chicken with chili powder, cumin, black pepper, salt, smoked paprika, coriander, garlic powder and onion. Pour in the water and lime juice. Dump Rotel on top of chicken. (If you’d like to cook rice at the same time then add in a tall trivet*. Place an oven safe dish* on top of the trivet and add in white rice, jasmine rice, basmati rice or converted rice and water. Use a 1 cup rice to 1.25 cup water ratio.) 

  2. 2

    Add chicken into slow cooker. Sprinkle the chicken with chili powder, cumin, black pepper, salt, smoked paprika, coriander, garlic powder and onion. Pour in the water and lime juice. Dump Rotel on top of chicken.
