First time blogger

This is my first blog.... I'm a jump right in kinda girl, so I thought a simple food blog would be a starting point. As I go I will research blogging and make improvements.

Instant Pot Steak Tips instant pot

1.5 - 2 lbs Sirloin steak Olive or veg oil 1/4 c Flour Onion powder Garlic powder Salt Pepper Beef broth -14 ounce can Beefy onion soup mix - 1 pk 1- Onion  1 - Bell pepper The seasonings I do not put a measurement with because I just guess. These are my go to seasonings.  If you need a measurement, start with an 1/8 teaspoon or so. I just usually shake a little over the meat.  Put oil in the instant pot, I just put enough to cover the bottom and lightly coat the meat. Set to Sauté.   Sauté the steak, onion, bell pepper, seasonings, and coat with flour as it sautés. Sauté until brown. Add broth and soup mix. Set to Manual for 35 minutes. I allow to naturally release.  Serve over rice. For thicker gravy add a can of cream of mushroom soup during cooking or stir in some cornstarch.

You can brown on the sauté setting with the instant pot. I would spray with nonstick or add a little olive oil if you use that method. Mainly just get the meat cooked without any pink. (I season my ground meat as it's cooking with garlic and onion powder just to add some flavor.) After browning the ground meat, combine all ingredients in the instant pot. The chicken broth is just for extra liquid. I prefer it over water for a little more flavor.  Set to manual for 8-12 minutes. I set mine for 10. ...
