Ingredients
Scale
- 4 onions, sliced into strips
- 4 large bell peppers (any color), sliced
- 1 small package mushrooms (optional)
- 1 1/2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- salt + pepper
Instructions
- Slice your vegetables as desired. Some like them thick strips, some like thin strips, some like diced, some like chunks – cut them however you prefer.
- Pour oil in the inner pot of the Instant Pot. Turn the Instant Pot to sauté and heat oil over medium heat.
- Place the vegetable into the hot oil and cook, making sure to stir every few minutes, until the onions have some color and are just turning soft, about 10-15 minutes.
Notes
- I like using white or yellow onions, but red onion is really good too!
- Also, feel free to add other Mexican spices like oregano, Mexican oregano, paprika, chili powder, cumin, or onion powder. We just prefer the simple combination of salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
