I found this easy to make and very tasty. Adjust the amount of beef broth if you want it less soupy. I found four cups to be too much, that’s why I chose three. Also, I recommend browning the beef in a skillet rather than the IP - easier, 1 batch, and IP doesn’t run hot.

Instructions

Step 1

Place the beef in a ziploc bag or a large bowl. Add in the arrowroot flour and 1 tsp each salt and pepper. Shake or stir until beef is coated in the flour.

Step 2

Set the instant pot to the sauté setting and add in the oil. Once the oil is hot, add the beef pieces with tongs and sear for 1-2 minutes on each side and then remove and place on a plate. You’ll need to do this in two batches as to not overcrowd the beef.

Step 3

Once the beef is browned and has been removed from the instant pot, add in the minced garlic while the instant pot is still on sauté mode. Saute the garlic until fragrant, cancel the saute mode, and then add in all of the remaining ingredients.

Step 4

Stir everything together and close the lid. Set the instant pot to manual high pressure for 30 minutes. Once it’s finished, you can flip the toggle to do a quick release, or allow it to manually release (a process which takes about 15 minutes). Remove the bay leaves and serve.
