Instant Pot Mojito Infused Chicken Tacos

Thank you for sharing!

(Inside: Another accidentally genius recipe. I took these Instant Pot Mojito Infused Chicken Tacos for a run and found myself blown away by the fantastic minty bite of every mouthful.)

Let’s be honest here. You know you love mojitos.

That minty bite of refreshing club soda and liquor.

Sometimes, you just kinda want one.

And then your toddler spills it in the chicken.

Because there’s no way I came up with Instant Pot Mojito Infused Chicken Tacos on my own.

It had to be an accident.

Honestly, the best part about these Insta Pot Mojito Infused Chicken Tacos was the whole accident thing.

If it hadn’t been for that–I probably never would have though to dump all this in the instant pot.

But the flavor.

O. M. G.

Totally the best accident ever.

And then, once the idea was there…I just couldn’t help myself.

Something else I love about these Insta Pot Mojito Infused Chicken Tacos is the lack of sour cream.

No, wait before you judge me!

I usually love me some good ‘ole sour cream, but using the cool tones of mint and the raw onion…no need for sour cream. At. All.

Which is rather awesome–because I was out.

LOL!
