Follow The Directions

01

Step
10 mins

Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Add oil, onion, and garlic; cook and stir until starting to soften, 3 to 5 minutes. Add beef; cook and stir until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Pour in bourbon and scrape up any browned bits off the bottom of the pot.

02

Step
1 hrs

Cancel Saute function. Add potatoes, black beans, corn, mushrooms, and carrots to the pot. Sprinkle salt, chili powder, pepper, cumin, and cinnamon over the beef and vegetables. Stir. Close and lock the lid. Select Stew function; set timer for 45 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.

03

Step
35 mins

Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 15 to 20 minutes. Make sure all the pressure has released and the valve has dropped before you open the lid.

For a deeper flavor, marinate the beef in bourbon for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
If you prefer a thicker stew, whisk 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water and stir into the stew after releasing the pressure.
Serve with a dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of fresh parsley for added richness and freshness.

    I was skeptical about the cinnamon, but it works so well with the other spices. My family loved it!
