Instructions
Add the chicken breast to the instant pot, followed by chicken broth, water, seasonings, tomatoes, pinto beans, corn, and onions. Top with a bay leaf.
Close the lid and set the pressure valve to the sealing position. Select Manual/Pressure Cook and set it for 14 minutes.
After cooking, let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes followed by a quick release. Open the lid after the pin drops.
When the soup is ready, remove the bay leaf, shred the chicken, and smash the whole tomatoes before serving. *Note - I add my chicken and the whole tomatoes to my kitchen aid mixer to shred the chicken and crush the tomatoes.
Add the chicken and tomatoes back to the Instant Pot and stir together.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with your favorite toppings.
