(I\u2019m pretty wimpy with spice and I could handle it, but it was too much for my kids.) <br\/><br\/>If you want to tone it down, you can cut all the spices in half.

However, it adds a really nice flavor, and I wouldn\u2019t recommend skipping it. <br\/><br\/>If you&#8217;re blessed with a higher spice tolerance than me, you can add more sauce or even dice a few chilies and add them to the pot.<br\/><br\/>(If you want to use up the remaining chipotle sauce, I recommend our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pressurecookingtoday.com\/creamy-chipotle-chicken\/\">Creamy Chipotle Chicken<\/a> or my friend Marci&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/tidbits-marci.com\/instant-pot-chipotle-ranch-chicken-panini\/\">Chipotle Ranch Chicken Wraps<\/a>.)
