Sauté Onions and Garlic: Start by setting your Instant Pot to the "Sauté" mode. Add the olive oil and allow it to heat up. Then, add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté for a few minutes until the onions turn translucent and fragrant.
Add Bell Peppers and Carrots: Stir in the diced red and green bell peppers, as well as the peeled and diced carrots. Sauté for another few minutes, allowing the vegetables to soften slightly.
Incorporate Zucchini and Corn: Add the diced zucchini and corn kernels to the Instant Pot. Sauté for a few more minutes until the zucchini begins to soften.
Seasonings and Spices: Sprinkle in the chili powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Stir well to coat the vegetables with the spices, creating a fragrant base for your chili.
Tomatoes and Beans: Pour in the crushed tomatoes and add the drained and rinsed black beans, kidney beans, and pinto beans. Stir to combine the ingredients.
Vegetable Broth: Pour in the vegetable broth, which will help create the desired consistency for your chili.
Pressure Cook: Close the Instant Pot lid and set it to "Manual" or "Pressure Cook" mode on high pressure. Cook for 5-7 minutes.
Natural Release: After the cooking cycle is complete, allow the Instant Pot to release pressure naturally for about 10 minutes. Then, carefully perform a quick release to release any remaining pressure.
