Ingredients

Instructions

  • Press Sauté button on the Instant Pot and add olive oil. Once oil is heated, add the chopped onion and stir for 1 minute. Add the garlic and sauté for another minute. Add in the rest of the ingredients, stir to combine all ingredients together. Press Off/Cancel to turn off Sauté function.
  • Place the lid on and move the valve to sealing. Press Beans/Chili and set the timer to 12 minutes. You’ll notice the Instant Pot will start to come to pressure first and then the timer will begin. It can take 8-10 minutes to come to pressure.
  • When the cook time is up, let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes, then do a quick release for any remaining pressure. Carefully open and remove the lid.
  • Serve with fresh cilantro and avocados and any other chili toppings, if desired.

Notes

Storage: The chili can be stored in the fridge for 4 to 5 days and reheated on the stovetop or in the microwave.
Freezing: Freeze the chili in freezer bags or a safe container for up to 6 months.
