Instant Pot Easy Cheesy Beef Enchiladas
Ingredients:
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 packet taco seasoning (1-1.25 ounce size)
- 1 can green chilies, undrained (4 ounces)
- 2 cups cheese of your choice, shredded
- 12 small flour tortillas
- 1 can red enchilada sauce (28 ounces)
- 2 cups Mexican cheese mixture, shredded
Directions:
Set the pressure cooker to sauté. Add the beef and taco seasoning.
Brown the beef, then drain the grease. (This will take about 7 minutes.)
Turn pressure cooker to Sauté – High. Add 1 cup of enchilada sauce. Add the can of green chilies.
Heat for an additional 5 minutes, or until the sauce has cooked down.
Remove from heat and set aside. Wipe down insert once cooled and grease lightly with oil or spray.
Warm up the tortillas in microwave slightly (wrap entire stack in a paper towel and heat on high for 30 seconds).
Open the tortillas one by one.
Add just over 1/8 cup beef mixture and 1 heaping tablespoon of shredded cheese.
Roll up tightly.
Place each filled and rolled tortilla back into the instant pot.
Pour the remaining enchilada sauce on top.
Top with Mexican cheese. Close and lock the lid.
Set the pressure cooker to Pressure Cook – High for 7 minutes.
Allow to natural release for 2-3 minutes, then manually release the rest of the pressure.
Once pin has dropped and pressure is fully released, open lid and serve.
Cut into pieces and serve, or using tongs, remove enchiladas individually and scoop sauce from bottom of insert.
