Best 5 Pressure Cooker Five Bean Chili Recipes

PRESSURE COOKER CHILI

Steps:

• Place the ground beef in the pressure cooker over medium high heat; cook until brown and crumbly, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove the ground beef, and drain off the excess fat.
• Return the open pressure cooker to the burner over medium heat, pour in the olive oil, and stir in the onion, green pepper, and jalapeno pepper. Cook and stir for 3 to 4 minutes, until the onion is translucent. Add the garlic, and cook and stir for about 30 more seconds. Return the meat to the pressure cooker; mix in the kidney beans, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, brown sugar, cocoa powder, red pepper flakes, chili powder, cumin, salt, and water.
• Lock the lid, bring the cooker up to pressure, reduce heat to maintain pressure, and cook for 8 minutes. Remove cooker from the heat, and let the pressure reduce on its own, 5 to 10 minutes.
• When the pressure is fully released, remove the lid, stir the chili, and serve.

Steps:

• Select saute or browning setting on a 6-qt. electric pressure cooker; adjust for medium heat. Cook half the beef until no longer pink, 7-9 minutes, breaking into crumbles.

Adjust to pressure-cook on high for 40 minutes. Quick-release pressure. Stir before serving. If desired, serve with cheese and jalapenos.

PRESSURE COOKER WHITE BEAN CHICKEN CHILI

Steps:

• Sprinkle both sides of the chicken with a pinch of salt and several grinds of pepper. Set a 6- or 8-quart Instant Pot® to high saute (see Cook's Note). Add the olive oil to the pot; once it's shimmering, add the chicken. Cook until both sides are golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Remove to a plate. Add the poblano and red onion. Cook, stirring occasionally and scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pot, until just tender, about 4 minutes. Add the cilantro, cumin, coriander, oregano, garlic, chipotle pepper and adobo sauce, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until the garlic is tender and fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes more. Return the chicken to the pot, then stir in the chicken broth, white beans and their liquid, green chiles and tortillas until combined. Cancel the high saute function.
• Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 12 minutes. After the pressure-cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for quick release and wait until the quick-release cycle is complete (this should take about 3 minutes). Being careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid. Using tongs, remove the chicken to a plate, then shred with 2 forks. Stir the shredded chicken back into the pot, then taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Ladle into serving bowls and top with cilantro, sour cream, cheese, avocado and/or lime wedges for squeezing.
