Instant Pot Ground Beef Tacos

Step 1

Break up the ground beef and place in the instant pot - try to avoid placing one large chunk inside (unless you are cooking from frozen, of course).

Step 2

In a small bowl, add all of the dry spices.

Step 3

Shake the seasoning mix over the beef.

Step 4

Add the bouillon and water to the liner.

Step 5

Secure the lid and set to sealing.

Step 6

Set the pot to 3 minutes, high pressure. 10 minutes if cooking from frozen.

Step 7

Quick release the pressure when the pressure cycle is complete.

Step 8

Now, don't panic, The beef may not be fully cooked at this point and look like it is in one big ball. Have no fear.

Step 9

Press cancel and then set the pot on saute mode. Use a potato masher to break up the beef and fully cook it (if needed). You can also strain it at this point if you don't want excess liquid - if needed. I find the amount of fat is highly dependent on which brand of beef I am using.

Step 10

Load up your tacos with your taco beef and toppings of choice.

Step 11

Left overs can stay in the fridge for 3 days, or you can freeze them. This reheats well.
