INSTANT POT® SWISS STEAK
Bottom round steak and a few kitchen staples is comfort food. When the leaves start to fall and the temperatures drop it's time for something hearty. I've used bottom round but any tough, lean cut of beef will work. Serve over noodles or rice to soak up all of that great sauce.

Steps:
- Dry steak well with paper towels and cut into four 4-inch pieces. Season with salt and pepper.
- Place flour into a shallow bowl. Dredge steak pieces in flour, shaking off excess.
- Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Once the pot is hot, add 1 tablespoon avocado oil. Brown the steak in batches, so you don't crowd the pot, 2 minutes per side. Transfer browned meat to a warm plate and set aside.
- Add 1 tablespoon of avocado oil to the pot and cook onion, carrot, celery, and bell pepper until onions are soft and translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Deglaze the pot with Merlot. Mix in tomatoes, Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon salt, oregano, and paprika. Return steak to the pot and push down into the tomato mixture.
- Close and lock the lid. Select manual pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 30 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
- Allow pressure to release naturally according to manufacturer's instructions for 5 minutes. Carefully open the valve to release the remaining pressure, about 5 minutes more. Unlock and remove the lid.

Steps:
- 1. Mix flour,salt, pepper & any additional seasonings to your taste. Dredge meat, cut in portion size pieces, in the flour mixture.
- 2. Put enough oil in the bottom pressure cooker and heat. Add floured meat pieces and brown on both sides. Drain if there seems to be an excess amount of oil left after browning, but usually not necessary, and return meat to cooker.
- 3. Mix mushroom soup and tomato soup with the water in a bowl. Whisk well to combine and make smooth. Pour over the meat that is in the cooker.
- 4. Put the pressure cooker on and let seal. Cook for 20 minutes while under pressure. Remove from heat and let pressure drop completely before trying to open lid.
- 5. The soups should have thickened during the cooking time to make a nice gravy to put over the meat and potatoes - which I cook while the meat is in the pressure cooker.

Tips:
- Use the right cut of beef: Chuck roast is the traditional cut used for Swiss steak, but you can also use round steak or flank steak. Just be sure to choose a cut that is at least 1 inch thick.
- Tenderize the beef: Pounding the beef with a meat mallet or rolling pin helps to break down the tough fibers and make it more tender.
- Brown the beef: Browning the beef in a little bit of oil before cooking it in the pressure cooker helps to develop flavor and color.
- Use a good quality beef broth: The beef broth you use will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish. Look for a broth that is made with real beef bones and vegetables.
- Add some vegetables: Vegetables such as onions, carrots, and celery add flavor and texture to the dish. You can also add other vegetables, such as potatoes, green beans, or mushrooms.
- Use a slow-cooker or pressure cooker: Swiss steak is a great dish to make in a slow-cooker or pressure cooker. This allows the meat to cook slowly and evenly, resulting in a tender and flavorful dish.
Conclusion:
Swiss steak is a classic comfort food dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. The combination of tender beef, savory gravy, and vegetables is sure to satisfy even the pickiest of eaters. Whether you make it in a slow-cooker or pressure cooker, Swiss steak is a dish that is sure to become a family favorite.
