In reply to Corinne Schmitt. I love the recipe but had the same problem. The chicken cooked perfectly but when I added the cheese, tortillas, black olives (and green chilies because I like some heat) it never got to pressure and gave me a burn notice. Sure enough, there was a thin layer of burned food at the bottom but the rest was awesome!

I followed the instructions for the instant pot EXACTLY and it burned at the point when you cook for 3 more minutes. I think that instead of cooking back at high pressure it would be better to just put it on warm to melt the cheese.

In reply to Wendy. I haven't tried chicharones so I don't know if they'd work or not. I think you'd be okay to just omit the tortillas entirely. If you try with chicharones though, please come back and let me know how it turns out.

What could I substitute for the tortillas if I wanted to keep it very low carb? Would chicharones work? Any other ideas?

In reply to Nancy. No, it doesn't matter. Other readers have told me they use flour instead and I've substituted them in as well when I didn't have corn tortillas on hand.

In reply to Corinne Schmitt. Would using flour tortillas make a difference?

In reply to Nancy. Hi Nancy, at my local grocery store, corn tortillas only come in one size so I didn't think to specify. Sorry about that. I don't know the measurement, but they are similar in size to the fajita-style flour tortillas (not the big, burrito-style ones).

In reply to Haley. Hi Haley, thanks so much for the feedback. I'm going to play around with this over the next couple of weeks and see if I can find a remedy that allows for more consistent results for everyone. Maybe low pressure will work. I'll update the recipe once I come up with a solution. Thanks again for your input!

I made this tonight for the first time. It was a big hit with my family, including kids aged 1 and 3! I did have the same problem as another poster, as it burned on the bottom a little. Next time I may just put the lid on and let it sit a while to see if the cheese melts on it’s own or try putting it on low pressure?? Not sure how to remedy this, but we will definitely be making this again. I used green sauce instead of red. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

In reply to Corinne Schmitt.

I set the pot after I shredded the chicken for 3 min and went to watch Sunday Night Football. Sorry! Went into the kitchen and Instant Pot said “Ouce”, I think it meant ouch. I shut it off immediately and it was just started to ” brown” on the bottom. So…I love this “go-to” recipe so much that I’m going to try it again as written and let you know without TV. Sorry I think 3 min with a QR will still be ok. I used Costco Chicken. Even with the “Ouce” it came out delicious! To be continued…

Love this recipe! My kids love it too, I’ve made it 3 times in the last 2 months. I follow the instructions exactly and have had no problems.

I made this recipe but slow cooked chicken and sauce in my IP for 4 hours. So easy and delicious!! My chicken is frozen today so I will try the pressure cook instructions. I will update tonight on how it came out.
