Best 4 Lorna Sasss 15 Minute Pressure Cooker Chili Recipes

LORNA SASS'S 15-MINUTE PRESSURE COOKER CHILI

Steps:

• Heat the oil in the cooker, stir in cumin seeds and toast 20 seconds. Add the ground meat in small batches, stirring vigorously after you add each batch. Use a long-handled fork or spoon to break up and crumble the meat. Continue cooking over high heat until the meat is brown.
• Stir in the onions and water, taking care to scrape up any browned bits sticking to the bottom of the cooker. Blend in the chile powder and the cocoa, then add the chorizo and bell pepper. Pour the tomatoes on top. Do not stir after adding tomatoes.
• Lock the lid in place, bring pan to high pressure over high heat. Reduce the heat just enough to maintain high pressure and cook for four minutes, then turn off heat. Quick release the pressure and remove lid, tilting it away from you to allow steam to escape.
• Stir in the garlic, oregano, salt and pepper, and extra chile powder to taste. Simmer the chili, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the flavors are integrated, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Add some cooked beans (pinto, kidney, or black, or a combination; drain and rinse if using canned beans), if desired, and heat through.Adding beans will increase the number the recipe will serve.
• Serve with garnishes of your choice.

BEST EVER CHUNKY CHILI

Steps:

• Cover beans with water and bring to a boil; set aside to soak at least 1 hour. Rinse, discarding bean water and recover beans with more water by 2-inches. Season and pressure cook, see tips (or soak overnight, then season and cook for 60-90 min, adding water as necessary).
• Tips: Bring a 5 qt pressure cooker up to 15 lb pressure (PSI, 2nd ring for 2nd generation cookers). Cook 15 minutes @ sea level (adding 1 minute per 1000 ft in altitude) or consult the Ball Blue Book.
• Softening Beans: NEVER add acidic foods (such as tomato products, lemon juice or vinegar) BEFORE the beans are fully softened.
• In a 2nd large stock pot, brown the meat and veggies, add remaining ingredients and softened beans, simmer uncovered 1 hour.

PRESSURE COOKER CHILI

Steps:

• Place the meat in a large mixing bowl and toss with the peanut oil and salt. Set aside.
• Heat a 6-quart heavy-bottomed pressure cooker over high heat until hot. Add the meat in 3 or 4 batches and brown on all sides, approximately 2 minutes per batch. Once each batch is browned, place the meat in a clean large bowl.
• Once all of the meat is browned, add the beer to the cooker to deglaze the pot.
• Scrape the browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Add the meat back to the pressure cooker along with the salsa, tortilla chips, chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, tomato paste, chili powder, and ground cumin and stir to combine. Lock the lid in place according to the manufacturer's instructions. When the steam begins to hiss out of the cooker, reduce the heat to low, just enough to maintain a very weak whistle. Cook for 25 minutes. Remove from the heat and carefully release the steam. Serve immediately.
