Ingredients
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, sliced into 1/4"-thick strips
  • 1 (1-ounce) packet fajita seasoning
  • 1/2 cup lime juice
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 2 medium green bell peppers, seeded and cut into 1/2" slices
  • 1 medium red bell pepper, seeded and sliced into 1/2"-thick slices
  • 2 tsp cornstarch
  • 1 medium yellow onion, peeled and sliced into 1/4"-thick slices
  • 8 (6-inch) flour tortillas, warmed
  • 1 medium lime, cut into wedges
Instructions
  • Press the Sauté button on an Instant Pot® and allow to heat until the display reads Hot. Add olive oil, chicken, and fajita seasoning to the pot. Sauté until chicken is fully cooked, about 7 Minutes. The internal temperature should be at least 165°F.
  • Press the Cancel button. Pour lime juice and broth into the pot and use a wooden spoon to scrape any browned bits from the bottom. Add bell peppers and onion to the pot and stir to combine. Place the lid on the Instant Pot® and click into place to close. Press the Pressure Cook button and adjust the timer to 1 Minute. When the timer beeps, quick-release the pressure until float valve drops. Unlock lid.
  • Press the Cancel button. Scoop 1/4 cup liquid from the pot into a medium bowl and whisk with cornstarch until smooth. Press the Sauté button on the Instant Pot® and stir in cornstarch mixture. Continue to sauté 5 Minutes until mixture thickens. Spoon into warmed tortillas and serve with lime wedges.
