Ingredients

Scale

Equipment needed: pan for pot-in-pot cooking and trivet/sling

  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 cup diced onion
  • 1 Tbsp minced garlic
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp garlic salt
  • 2 tsp cumin
  • 2 tsp chili powder
  • 1 (10 oz) can Rotel (diced tomatoes with green chilies)
  • 1 (14.5 oz) can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 (10 oz) can red enchilada sauce
  • Corn tortillas, torn into 2 inch pieces (5 larger size or 12 street taco size)
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded colby cheese
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded monterey jack cheese
  • Topping ideas: sour cream, cilantro, diced tomatoes, diced red onion, avocado, jalapenos

Instructions

  1. In a pan on the stove or in your Instant Pot using the sauté setting brown the ground beef and onions together for about 5 minutes. Drain off any excess grease. 
  2. Add in the garlic, garlic powder, garlic salt, cumin, chili powder, Rotel and black beans. Stir. 
  3. In a 7 inch by 4 inch pan* layer the following ingredients 3 times: ⅓ of the meat mixture, ⅓ of the torn tortillas, ⅓ of the cheeses, ⅓ of the enchilada sauce. 
  4. Clean out Instant Pot (if used) and pour 1 cup water into the bottom of it. 
  5. Cover the pan with foil. Place on a trivet/sling*. Lower the pan into the Instant Pot.
  6. Cover Instant Pot and secure the lid. Make sure valve is set to sealing. Set the manual/pressure cook button to 25 minutes. When time is up move the valve to venting.
  7. Remove the lid and the pan. Scoop onto plates and enjoy with desired toppings.  

Notes

I used my 6 quart Instant Pot Duo 60 7 in 1*. You can make this in the 8 quart pot with no changes (except to use 1.5 cups or water underneath trivet instead of 1 cup).
