Salsa Chicken One-Pot

I really love to make one-pot meals, not just for the easy cleanup, but the fact that you can make large portions and freeze them for another day. This is a great ‘leave it and forget it’ recipe, but you sure don’t have to leave it for long, as it cooks in only 6 minutes after pressure buildup. A great 30 minute (or less!) meal idea. Since this recipe has so many great flavors, you really don’t need to spend too much on the salsa ingredients, (jarred store brands will do) or, even better, if it’s the growing season, you can use soft tomatoes and peppers that you might find marked down at the grocery or, (even better) in your own backyard garden!

Equipment Necessary

6qt or larger Electric Pressure Cooker

Ingredients

2lbs Ground Chicken
1 Large Onion, diced
2 (15oz) cans Black Beans, drained
1 (12oz) jar of Salsa
1 (15oz) jar of Salsa Con Queso
1lb Dry Ziti Pasta
1 (6oz) can Tomato Paste
1 (8oz) cup jarred Taco Sauce
3 Cups Water
Sour Cream (optional)

Saute the Ground Chicken and Onion using the Saute option on your pressure cooker.
Cancel Saute function, add rest of ingredients.
Cook on High Pressure for 6 minutes, then do a Quick Release. Serve with dollop of Sour Cream, if desired. YUM!

Leftovers freeze great, and a quick one-pot cleanup. Please leave any comments or questions below, I would love to hear from you! Enjoy!
