Cook for 30 minutes and then release pressure using the quick-release method. Remove the chicken from the broth and shred using a fork. Strain the liquid from the cooker over the top of the chicken and set aside until ready to serve.
- Prepare Other Ingredients: Shred the cheese. Make the pico de gallo by dicing the tomato and onion. Finely chop the cilantro. Mix together tomato, onion, and cilantro and juice the lime over the top and stir. Season with salt to taste. Heat the tortillas in a pan until they are slightly browned.
- Serve: Serve the tacos by placing a tortilla on a plate with a small portion of meat on top. Top with pico and cheese as desired. Buen provecho!
