Chop onions and pepper, mince garlic and chunk chicken breast.
Press the saute button on Instant pot. When it's hot, add the oil and onions. Add the garlic last and cook for about a minute.

Add can of tomatoes with liquid and stir making sure nothing is sticking to the bottom on the instant pot.
Add in beans and corn and tomatoes. Stir all together.
Place chicken breasts into the instant pot, cancelling the saute mode. Make sure the valve is set to "sealing" after securing the lid. Press the Pressure Cook or Manual button and use the +/- buttons to set the timer for 7 minutes.
Once the timer beeps, let out the pressure by carefully moving the valve to “venting" to perform a quick release. This may take a few minutes.
When the pin drops, remove lid. On saute, add heavy cream and lime juice. Heat for a few minutes, stirring till all the cream is mixed in.
