Best Instant Pot Chili
Who can resist a good chili? Natasha here from Salt & Lavender with a cozy recipe for you. Chili is so easy to make in the electric pressure cooker! Prep time is minimal, and you can do other things while the Instant Pot works its magic. This chili is delicious straight out of the pot, but it’s also great for freezing/meal prep. Just freeze it in individual portions or use a larger container and let it thaw in the fridge overnight.
Chili Ingredients:
Ground beef (you can use your preferred type of ground meat) Onion for added flavor (sautéed in olive oil) Kidney beans (I used red ones but feel free to sub with white ones or another type of canned bean if you prefer) Canned tomatoes (I used a combo of tomato sauce and diced tomatoes) Spices: Garlic, chili powder, smoked paprika, and cumin for that signature chili flavor. Optional: cayenne pepper if you like it hot! Beef broth for moisture and salty flavor
