Instant Pot Chili

Ingredients

• 1 tbsp oil
• 1/2 cup medium onion (diced)
• 1 lb ground beef (lean preferred)
• 14 oz crushed tomatoes (one small can)
• 6 oz tomato paste (one small can)
• 1 cup chicken stock (no sodium preferred)
• 1 bay leaf
• 1 tbsp chili powder (store bought or our mix above)
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
• 1/4 tsp ground cayenne pepper
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 2 tbsp chili powder (store bought or our mix above)
• 2 tsp ground cumin
• 2 tsp onion powder
• 2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/4 tsp ground cayenne pepper
• 1 tbsp hatch chile powder (optional)

Instructions

1. 1

   Add the oil to the Instant Pot on saute high. When hot, add the onion and cook, stirring, until soft, but not brown. Add the meat along with salt and pepper (to your preference) to the pot and cook, breaking up. You can use a potato masher to help break up all the meat. Cook just until the beef breaks up and the meat is no longer pink.

2. 2

   Stir in the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, chicken stock, bay leaf, and first spice dump. Put the lid on, set the pressure to high and cook time to 30 minutes. Quick release the pressure when cooking time is completed.

3. 3

   Give the chili a stir, and add in the second spice dump, tasting and adjusting with salt and pepper as needed. Enjoy!
