I made this chili in my Instant Pot and it was done in no time. It was just as good as the slow cooker version, but much faster.

This chili was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less green chiles.

I wasn't sure about the tomatillos, but they really added a nice flavor to the chili. I also liked the fact that this recipe didn't have any beans. I'm not a big fan of beans in chili.

This chicken chili verde was an absolute hit! The chicken was fall-off-the-bone tender and the sauce was incredibly flavorful. I loved the combination of the tomatillos, green chiles, and spices. It was the perfect level of heat, too. I will definite
