Ingredients 

  • 2 6 inch corn tortilla
  • 4 teaspoons olive oil
  • 2 1/2 pound bottom round roast, cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 16 ounces kidney beans, drained
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 medium onions, peeled and diced
  • 1 clove garlic, peeled and diced
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 3 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1 tablespoon chopped chipotle chili, canned in adobo sauce
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 28 ounces diced tomatoes
  • 1/2 ounce semi-sweet chocolate

Optional Garnishes: sliced scallions, radishes, or flat-leaf parsley

    Instructions

    • Grind the corn tortillas in a food processor, blend them until it’s crumbs.
    • Place one tablespoon of olive oil into the pressure cooker and hit saute.
    • When the oil heats up at 1/2 of the meat, then brown it on all sides (about 5 minutes)
    • Then remove that 1/2 of the meat and add the other 1/2 and 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
    • When all of the meat is browned, and removed from the Instant Pot, add the chopped onions and garlic, and olive oil (1 tablespoon).
    • Saute for about 3 minutes until it’s softened.
    • When the onions and garlic are softened, add the rest of the ingredients (except for chocolate, which you keep for last) and the meat back into the Instant Pot.
    • Place the lid onto the Instant Pot and set it to manual high pressure for 25 minutes.
    • Let the pressure naturally release.
    • When it is done, stir in the chocolate, and mix until it’s all melted.
    • Spoon into bowls and garnish as you wish.
    • Plate, serve, and enjoy!
