Instructions
Add cubed potatoes, chicken broth, salt, garlic powder, and pepper to Instant Pot. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
Secure lid on Instant Pot. Set to Manual High Pressure for 5 minutes. Pot will pressurize and then cook time will begin. When 5 minute cook time is up, carefully Quick Release pressure and remove lid.
Stir in shredded cheese and sour cream until ingredients are fully incorporated and cheese is completely melted. Divide into portions and garnish with sliced green onions. Serve warm.
Recipe Notes
Cheese: Use a block of cheddar cheese and shred it yourself. Prepackaged shredded cheeses contain fillers and starches to prevent clumping, which also make it behave a little strangely when you melt it.
Make it Vegetarian: Use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
