Steps:

• Combine the chicken, chipotles and adobo sauce, honey, onion powder, garlic powder, salt and cumin in an electric pressure cooker. Stir well. Cover and set steam valve to sealed position. Cook on high pressure for 13 minutes. Let the pressure release naturally for 5 minutes; then release the remaining pressure manually. Open the lid.
• Remove the chicken to a bowl or cutting board using tongs. Shred the chicken with two forks. If you'd like to reduce the sauce, set to sauté and simmer, 5 minutes. Add the chicken back into the pot.
• Stir in the black beans and a squeeze of lime juice, set to sauté and let the beans warm through, 2 to 3 minutes. Taste and add more salt or lime juice if necessary. Serve in tortillas with pickled onions and avocado.

Steps:

• Blot chicken with paper towels until completely dry. Cut into 1- to 2-inch chunks.
• Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®), select Saute function, and click to adjust to the highest heat. When the pot is hot, add oil and heat until shimmering. Add chicken and saute until it starts to get golden, stirring constantly so it doesn't stick to the bottom of the pot, for 2 to 3 minutes. Pour 3/4 cup orange juice into the pot and bring to a boil while scraping all the browned bits of food off the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon.
• Add tomato sauce, sugar, molasses, soy sauce, garlic, orange zest, ginger, and rice wine; gently stir until all ingredients are combined and coated in sauce. Cancel Saute function.
• Close and lock the lid, and make sure the vent is closed. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 5 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Allow the Instant Pot® to remain on for 10 minutes with the Keep Warm function. Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Select Saute function and click to adjust to the lowest heat.
• Combine 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed orange juice with cornstarch in a medium bowl; whisk until combined with no lumps. Add to the Instant Pot® and stir to combine. Cook, stirring gently, until sauce thickens, about 3 minutes. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes more.
• Cancel Saute function and let stand until sauce thickens further, 5 to 7 minutes. Serve.

Steps:

• Using the sauté setting, heat oil in a 6- to 8-quart pressure cooker. Add the onion, season it with salt and cook, stirring often, until the onion is softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until slightly softened and fragrant, 2 minutes. Turn the sauté setting off.
• Open the can of chipotles and remove the chiles, leaving as much of the adobo sauce behind as possible. (Scrape the sauce off the chiles with your fingers as best you can.) Set the chiles aside and add the adobo sauce to the pressure cooker. Chop 1 to 4 of the chiles until they are almost a paste. (Determine the number of chiles according to your desired level of heat: 1 chile for a very mild soup and 4 for a very spicy soup.) Add the chiles to the pressure cooker. (Store remaining chiles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 5 days and in the freezer indefinitely.)
• Using the sauté setting, add onion and garlic powders, cumin and oregano to the pressure cooker. Cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant and heated through, about 1 minute. Stir in the chicken until coated, scraping the bottom of the pan. Add the broth and 1/2 teaspoon salt (but hold off on the salt if you are using fully salted broth.) Close the lid and cook on high pressure for 18 minutes.
• Let the pressure release naturally for 5 minutes, then release remaining pressure manually. (If hot liquid spurts out of the knob along with the steam, carefully close it and wait 5 more minutes before releasing remaining pressure.) Using a ladle, skim excess fat from the surface of the soup, if desired.
• Using the sauté setting, coarsely shred the chicken in the pot using 2 forks. Add the corn and the pozole and simmer until warmed through, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the lime juice and taste; add more salt or lime juice if necessary. Serve the soup in bowls with the toppings of choice.
