This recipe is a spin on Chicken Tortilla Soup. Instead of chicken I use wild ground turkey. The result of this rendition was surprising.

3 TB corn meal

Dash salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
Select "Sauté" option on Instant Pot and when display turns to HOT, add olive oil, diced onion, diced bell pepper, and all of the dry seasonings. Stir to combine and sauté for 4 minutes. Once veggies are tender, add garlic and cook for another minute.
At this time, add Rotel, tomato paste, chipotle chiles and water/chicken stock. Give a good stir and then add wild ground turkey - this can be fresh or frozen!
Give another good stir and then place lid on the Instant Pot, lock the lid and set to "Sealing." Select "Manual" option and set the timer for 10 minutes on HIGH pressure.
Once the timer goes off, let the pot release pressure naturally for 2 minutes. Release remaining pressure by setting pressure valve to "Venting" position. Once pressure is released, open pot and add corn meal, salt and pepper to taste.
You are ready to serve! Goes well with tortilla chips, cheese, and sour cream/yogurt.
