- 2 tablespoons lime juice, about 1 lime

Instructions
- Turn your Instant Pot on to Sauté mode and add oil. Once heated and shimmering, add onion and saute until softened and slightly translucent, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add in garlic, jalapeno, and tomato paste. Saute for another 1 minute, or until fragrant.
- Pour in chicken broth, rice, black beans, corn, lime juice, and taco seasoning. Mix until seasoning is incorporated.
- Place the chicken on top of the rice and bean mixture or on top of a steamer rack/basket inserted into the Instant Pot. Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
- Cover the Instant Pot and cook on high pressure for 10 minutes. Once the time is up, let it naturally release for another 10 minutes. Then, open the valve to release any excess pressure.
- Remove the chicken and stir the beans and rice mixture.
- Using two forks, shred the chicken breasts.
- Mix together the shredded chicken and rice.
- Assemble burritos by scooping the rice and bean mixture into the tortilla and adding any desired toppings.
- Fold the sides in, roll, and serve immediately.
