Helpful Tips:
​
-
This a great recipe for an InstaPot or even a slow cooker.​​
​
-
For an InstaPot, set to saute while cooking the onions and browning the meat. Drain excess oil, add remaining ingredients, and set to Stew/Soup for 35 minutes. Let the steam naturally release and enjoy!
​
-
For a slow cooker, cook on high, for 2 hours after sauteing the onions and browning the meat. It is still important to drain excess fat before adding the spices and additional ingredients.
