Instructions
- For the shredded chicken: In a medium bowl, mix the salsa and taco seasoning until blended and set aside. Place the chicken in the Instant Pot and add the salsa mixture. Stir to make sure the chicken is covered with the mixture on all sides.
- Secure the lid and move the vent knob to “Sealing.” Press “Manual” and cook on high pressure for 15 minutes. When the cooking time is done, carefully move the vent knob to “Venting” to quickly release the pressure. Remove the chicken thighs to a medium bowl, and shred using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the pot and stir it into the salsa.
- To make the crema: While the chicken is cooking, combine all ingredients in a food processor or blender. Process until smooth.
- To assemble: Spoon the chicken into the keto tortillas or Bibb lettuce wraps, and top with plenty of avocado crema. Finish with fresh pico de gallo, radish slices, and pickled onions and carrots if desired.
