Adjust the amount of jalapeno pepper to control the spice level to your preference.

Garnish with shredded cabbage or lettuce for added texture.

    This recipe is a lifesaver! I love posole but never have the time to make it the traditional way. The Instant Pot version is so quick and easy, and the flavor is amazing!

  • Kacey Upton

    Great recipe! My family loved it. I will definitely be making this again.

  • Gwendolyn Kautzer

    I used chicken thighs instead of chicken breast, and it turned out super tender and juicy!

  • Micheal Mayer

    The salsa verde is so fresh and flavorful. I added a little extra lime juice for a bit more tang.
