Instant Pot Skyline Chili

canola oil

onion (diced fine)

tomato paste

oregano

salt and pepper

spaghetti noodles (cooked to al dente and drained)

white onion

Kidney beans (drained & rinsed)

Oyster crackers

Turn your Instant Pot to saute. Once it reads HOT, add oil and then ground beef and onion. Cook beef until browned, and use a potato mashed or spatula to break the meat up into very fine pieces. Once brown add garlic and cook for 1 minute, or until fragrant.

Turn the saute function off. Add all remaining ingredients and stir well. Put the lid on the Instant Pot and turn to Manual or High Pressure and set a timer for 25 minutes. Let the chili cook and when the timer beeps, let the pressure out with a quick release.

Serve over spaghetti and top with desired toppings. I recommend onions and cheddar cheese.

Cincinnati Chili is a flavorful meat sauce famous in the Midwest. This easy crowd pleaser is great to top spaghetti, or hot dogs. Cook it on stove top, or in your slow cooker.
