Ingredients
  

  • 1½ pounds beef chuck roast (cut into 1" cubes)
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup onion (diced)
  • 2 large carrots (diced)
  • ½ cup celery (diced)
  • 16 ounces mushrooms (sliced)
  • 2 teaspoons garlic
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 32 ounces beef broth
  • 1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley (chopped)

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl, toss the beef with salt and pepper.
  • Select Saute setting, high temp. Add olive oil to the pot and heat until hot enough that the beef sizzles when added to the pot. Sear half the beef cubes until brown, about 5 minutes. Do not overcrowd the pan. Remove and set aside on a plate. Repeat with the remaining beef.
  • Add onion, carrots, and mushrooms to the pot. Saute for about 5 to 7 minutes until tender.
  • Add garlic and saute for 1 more minute.
  • Add thyme, bay leaf, beef, beef broth, diced tomatoes to the pot.
  • Secure the lid and select Pressure Cook for 27 minutes. Once pressure cooking is complete, let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes then follow up with a quick release.

Kori's Tips

  • Don't miss all of our helpful hints, substitution ideas, cooking tips, and other delicious recipes can be found in our post. Check it out!
  • To lower the salt content in this soup, use 1 teaspoon of salt instead of 2. Use an unsalted beef broth. Adjust any remaining seasoning to your liking.
  • Cut your meat into uniform pieces 1" for consistent cooking.
  • To increase the fat content, use additional olive oil to sear the beef and saute vegetables. You can also use butter to saute vegetables. Do not add butter; when you sear the beef, it will burn.
  • Sear the beef over high heat. Preheat the pot and oil before adding beef. The beef should sizzle when you add it to the pot. If it doesn't sizzle, the oil is not hot enough. I like to test with one piece of beef. If it's not hot, I remove it.
  • Do not overcrowd the pot when searing the beef, or you will get too much liquid, and you will "steam" the beef instead of searing. Seering the beef gives the soup a lot of flavors
