How to Make Chicken Fajitas in an Electric Pressure Cooker

Cris here.

As I mentioned the other day, we have been working on converting some of our favorite crock pot recipes into Instant Pot recipes for those of you who enjoy using electric pressure cookers. One of my favorite weekly meals is our Crock Pot Chicken Fajitas, so the other day when I was in a pinch for time I tried it in our Instant Pot.

After my initial test, I was thrilled at the time it saved but not as happy with the texture of the bell peppers– they fell a part too easily. SO, every time since then I have just made sure to cut my bell pepper slices a little bit thicker than I do for the crock pot version and the result has been perfect! I just love having this quick option for a slow cooker recipe we love so much!

I have tried this in both my 6 quart Instant Pot and my 6 quart Farberware Electric Pressure Cooker. Both times with great success.
