Instant Pot Steak and Potato Soup
Description
Instant Pot Steak and Potato Soup features thick-cut bacon rendered for fat and flavor, then sautéed onions and garlic to build a savory base. Chopped sirloin steak is seared briefly to develop a brown crust, enhancing the soup's depth. Yukon gold potatoes add a creamy texture as they cook through in the beef bone broth. Dried oregano and salt round out the seasoning while green bell pepper provides a subtle freshness. Cooking under pressure for 45 minutes yields tender beef and well-cooked potatoes in a flavorful broth.
The resulting soup has a robust, meaty character with softened vegetables and a satisfying bite from the bacon pieces. Serving it garnished with chopped green onion or toppings like sour cream, yogurt, cheese, or avocado adds personal touches to the hearty bowl, making it suitable as a single-dish lunch or dinner.
This recipe benefits from the hands-off pressure cooking method, which tenderizes the steak cubes and melds the flavors efficiently. Leftovers can be reheated gently, and seasoning can be adjusted before serving if needed.
Ingredients
- 3 Bacon chopped, thick-cut strips
- 1/2 yellow onion chopped
- 5 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 green bell pepper chopped
- 1.5 to 2 pounds beef sirloin steak chopped into 1.5 to 2-inch cubes
- 3 cups potato chopped into 2-inch chunks, Yukon gold variety
- 3 cups beef bone broth
- 2 tsp oregano dried
- 1 tsp salt to taste, sea salt
Instructions
- Turn on your Instant Pot and press Saute. Add the chopped bacon and cook 1 to 3 minutes, until much fat has rendered.
- Add the onion and saute, stirring frequently until onion is translucent, about 3 to 4 minutes.
- Add in the chopped steak and brown a couple of minutes until steak has a nice sear on it. Add the remaining ingredients to the Instant Pot and secure the lid.
- Press the Pressure Cook button and set the time to 45 minutes. Make sure the pressure release valve is set to Sealing (note: you can also use the Stew/Meat function).
- Once the Instant Pot has run its cycle, allow it to go into its Keep Warm mode for 10 minutes (or up to 30 minutes if you aren’t around). Manually release any remaining pressure.
- Serve stew with any toppings you like. I just add some chopped green onion and call it gravy, but you can also serve with sour cream, yogurt, cheese, avocado, etc.
