  • by

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 small yellow onion, diced (about 1/2 cup)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 green bell peppers, diced
  • 1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes (don’t drain)
  • 1 can (15 oz) tomato sauce
  • 2/3 cup beef broth
  • 2/3 cup jasmine rice
  • 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 2 cups shredded Cheddar-Jack cheese

Instructions

  1. For the pressure cooker, select “browning/saute” to preheat the pot. Once hot, add the ground beef and onion and saute for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly until beef is browned. I drained out any extra fat/oil.
  2. Next, add the garlic and bell peppers, saute for 1 full minute.
  3. Add tomatoes, tomato sauce, beef broth, rice, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Lock the lid in place. Select “High Pressure and 5 minutes cook time.
  4. Once the cook time ends, turn off the pressure cooker and use a natural release for ten minutes. Then finish with a quick pressure release and remove lid. Sprinkle the cheese on top, place lid back on, and let sit for a few minutes to allow cheese to melt.
  5. Serve and enjoy hot!
