I love a good beef stew!
I grew up on steak and potatoes so I know a good beef stew when I taste it and this one is delicious. Best of all, you can make it in under a half an hour by using your pressure cooker.
Using your pressure cooker, you can develop flavors into your beef stew quickly to make it taste like it cooked all day long instead of the 20 minutes it takes the Instant Pot. (I did include slow cooker instructions after the printable recipe at the bottom of the post)
I love using the Instant Pot to develop flavors that usually take a long time like this Instant Pot Chicken Gnocchi Soup recipe and this Instant Pot Corned Beef.The flavor that a pressure cooker can bring is amazing!

Instant Pot Beef Stew Recipe
Directions:
Add oil and meat to instant pot and set to saute. Heat until meat is browned. Add broth, potatoes, vegetables and spices. Mix well.
Place the lid on the instant pot and seal shut. Close the pressure release valve. Set instant pot to manual, high pressure for 10 minutes. When the cooking cycle is complete, naturally release pressure for 10 minutes before opening pot.
If mixture is too thin, set the Instant Pot to saute and add the cornstarch slurry. Mix well and heat until bubbling and thick. Remove from heat and serve with biscuits.
Can I make this recipe in a slow cooker?
To make slow cooker beef stew, place all of the ingredients in your slow cooker and cook on LOW for 7 hours or HIGH for 4 hours. Take 1/3 cup of broth and use the cornstarch slurry to thicken the sauce if you need to.

Quite easy to make! It was quite good, too. I doubled the pepper and halved the thyme and rosemary, and very glad I did or it would have been too much of the herbs. With those changes, we loved it and we will definitely be making it again!Reply
