Instant Pot Chili
This Instant Pot Chili recipe is full of meaty goodness in this easy to make recipe that utilizes the hottest kitchen appliance trend: the electric pressure cooker.
This recipe comes from the fabulous new Electric Pressure Cooker Cookbook from my friend Barbara Schieving over at www.PressureCookingToday.com . She sent me over a copy of her cookbook to review and I have to say: I love it! This cookbook is the best guide I’ve seen for using your electric pressure cooker. It comes with detailed instructions and tips for using any brand of electric pressure cooker and teaches you how to maximize this fabulous kitchen appliance. It also contains a full collection of amazing recipes.
Chili Con Carne is a classic chili option that can really hit the spot on a cold day. It’s full of meat, beans, and a whole lot of flavor. Tortilla chips are used as a thickening agent in this chili which is pretty genius because tortilla chips also make a great garnish for chili as well.

Yes! Dried beans can easily be made in the Instant Pot. For this recipe, add 1 cup of dried red kidney beans to your electric pressure cooker along with 1 quart of water.
