Yield: 6 Servings
Ingredients: 1 3/4 – 2 pounds beef (chuck roast, cut into 1 1/2-2 inch pieces) salt and pepper 2 tablespoons butter 8 ounces baby bella mushrooms, halved or quartered 14-ounce bag (~ 2 cups) pearl onions And many more.
Instructions:
First of all. OPTIONAL: season the beef with a big pinch of salt and pepper. Heat the butter in the instant pot on the saute setting. When the butter melts, sear the beef in batches, remove to a plate.
Step 2, INSTANT POT: In a large measuring cup, mix the beef broth with 2 scant tablespoons of cornstarch until it dissolves. Place all the ingredients in the Instant Pot and select the meat/stew setting. Time the recipe for 35 minutes. Once the stew is cooked allow it to rest in the pot for 10-15 minutes before releasing the steam. This gives the meat a chance to really soak up all those flavors. If you feel the gravy is thin, dissolve the remaining tablespoon of cornstarch with a little water and add that in with the IP on the sautee setting. Adjust salt and pepper to preference.
