GREEN CHICKEN CHILI
The green color in this chili comes from the combination of poblano and Anaheim peppers, along with tomatillos. This combination results in a fresh, light-flavored chili. To dress it up, serve it with crushed corn chips, a mild white cheese such as queso quesadilla, chopped fresh cilantro, and sour cream as garnishes.

INSTANT POT GREEN PORK CHILI
Chili is best simmered low and slow, but sometimes you don't have the time. A pressure cooker helps tenderize pork shoulder, a cut of meat that's usually tough, in minutes rather than hours. A mixture of green chiles, cilantro, garlic and lime brighten up this easy and wonderfully speedy.

Steps:
- For the chili: In a small food processor, combine the scallions, garlic, poblano, jalapeno and cilantro. Process until a chunky paste forms, 2 to 3 minutes. Scrape into a 6-quart Instant Pot®, add the pork, canned chiles with their liquid, the cumin, salt and pepper. Stir together.
- Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 35 minutes. After the pressure-cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for quick release and wait until the quick-release cycle is complete.
- Being careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid. Set the pot to saute on high and stir in the beans and lime juice. Taste for seasoning and add more salt or pepper, if needed. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened slightly, 10 to 15 minutes. For a thicker chili, simmer until it reaches your desired consistency.
- Meanwhile, prepare the toppings. When ready to serve, ladle the chili into shallow bowls and garnish with avocado, Cotija, cilantro and lime wedges.

Steps:
- Set a 6-quart Instant Pot® to high saute (see Cook's Note). When hot, add in the oil, scallions, garlic and jalapeno. Cook, stirring, until softened and fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Hit cancel.
- Add the stock, chiles, lime zest, cumin, oregano, salt and pepper. Mix together. Add in the chicken and stir so everything is coated and covered. Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set pressure to normal (or "poultry" setting) for 20 minutes.
- After the pressure-cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for quick release and wait until the quick-release cycle is complete. Being careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid.
- Set the pot to high saute and cook 12 to 15 minutes, stirring frequently. As you stir the chicken will begin to break apart and shred. You want most of the liquid to absorb, leaving a thick sauce. Squeeze in the juice of the halved limes. Taste the chili and add more salt or pepper if needed.
- To serve, fill the lettuce cups with the shredded chicken followed by a few slices of avocado, cilantro leaves and radish rounds.
Tips:
- For a smokier flavor, roast the green chiles and tomatoes before adding them to the pot.
- Use a variety of beans for a more complex flavor and texture. Black beans, kidney beans, and pinto beans are all good choices.
- Add some corn or diced zucchini for a pop of sweetness and color.
- If you like your chili spicy, add a diced jalapeño or serrano pepper. For milder chili, remove the seeds and ribs from the peppers before adding them.
- Garnish your chili with sour cream, shredded cheese, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice.
