Instructions
- Set your Instant Pot to the “Sauté” function. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
- Add the chopped onion to the Instant Pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
- Add the crushed tomatoes, kidney beans, black beans, pinto beans, diced tomatoes and green chilies, and chopped green chilies to the Instant Pot.
- Stir in the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Secure the lid on the Instant Pot and set the valve to “Sealing”.
- Select the “Manual” or “Pressure Cook” setting and cook on high pressure for 10 minutes.
- Once the cooking cycle is complete, let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes, then carefully perform a quick release for any remaining pressure.
- Open the lid and stir the chili.
- Serve hot with your favorite toppings.
Notes
- For a spicier chili, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a diced jalapeño with the onions.
- If you don’t have a specific type of bean, feel free to substitute with another.
- This chili freezes well, so you can make a big batch and save some for later.
