Take your chicken and use the taco seasoning to liberally season the chicken. If you are working with really thick pieces of chicken, I recommend cutting it up. I had thinner sliced chicken.
In the Instant Pot place your chicken breast that is seasoned. Dump in any leftover taco seasoning you didn't use to season the chicken.
Add in the black beans, corn, Rotel, rice, and pour in the chicken broth. Make sure to push all the rice into the broth. Ensure all the rice is in the liquid or it will not soften properly.
Place the lid on the Instant Pot and make sure the valve is set to sealing. Then do a high pressure or manual cook for 10 minutes. Once the 10 minutes is done, quick release the pressure.
Open the lid and shred or dice up the chicken. Then add in your cup of shredded cheese and stir. Once the cheese is melted, you are ready to serve up the burrito bowl.
Dish up your Instant Pot burrito bowl mixture and top with a drizzle of lime juice, and all your favorite toppings.
Notes
You can use ground beef, ground chicken, instead of chicken. All you need to do is saute the meat first making sure it is fully cooked. Then use the broth to help deglaze the bottom of the pot. You can use a cup of salsa to replace the Rotel if you would like. Store leftovers in a proper airtight container, and use to meal prep easy lunches or dinners later in the week. Cut up the chicken into cubes if you are using a thicker cut chicken. Otherwise, it will run the risk of not being fully cooked.
