Pressure-Cooker Black Bean Chicken Nachos image

One of my favorite local restaurants, Zeppelins, has the best chicken nachos. Its famous dish inspired me to create my own, with the added convenience of using the pressure cooker. I recommend fresh cilantro because it makes the dish pop with flavor. -Natalie Hess, Cedar Rapids, Iowa
