Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef made into meatballs or use frozen meatballs premade
  • 1 lb chicken precooked, cut into thin strips, or left out
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 can diced tomatoes 16 oz
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 1/2 head cabbage sliced
  • 4 cup chicken broth
  • 2 cup water or use more chicken broth instead for deeper flavor
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 1/4 tsp chili powder

Instructions

  • Set pot to saute and add olive oil. If you want meatballs make them into equal sizes now, or just add ground beef with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook until ground beef is no longer pink. Then turn pot off.
  • ** If adding chicken use precooked shredded, or cut fresh breasts into thin strips so they can cook faster.
  • Add all ingredients into your pot with the cabbage on the very top.
  • Close lid and steam valve and press rice button. If you don't have this button press high pressure for 12 minutes followed by a quick release of steam.
  • Stir contents and serve with slices of fresh avocado, shredded cheese and a dollop of sour cream on top.
