Instant Pot Red Posole Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Toast all the chiles on a rimmed baking sheet until beginning to brown (do not char) and starting to lightly curl in places, about 5 minutes. Set aside until ready to use.
• Meanwhile, set a 6-quart Instant Pot® to high saute (see Cook's Note). When hot, after 1 to 2 minutes, add the oil and pork and let the pork sit undisturbed until browned, about 6 minutes. Turn the pork and brown the other side, 6 minutes more. Transfer to a plate until ready to use.
• Add the oregano, peppercorns, garlic, cloves, sliced onions and 2 tablespoons salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are tender and beginning to brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Add 6 cups water and the toasted chiles and bring to a simmer. Turn the pot off, cover and let sit until the chiles have softened, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Blend the chile mixture in a blender until completely smooth. Transfer back to the pot and stir in 6 cups water until combined. Add the reserved pork, pozole, cilantro, mint and bay leaf.
• Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 1 hour 20 minutes.
• After the pressure-cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for natural release. After 20 minutes, being careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid.
• Remove and discard the cilantro, mint and bay leaf. Carefully transfer the pork to a rimmed baking sheet. Using two forks, shred the meat into bite-sized pieces. Return to the pot along with any accumulated juices and stir to combine.
• Serve with thinly sliced cabbage, thinly sliced radishes, dried oregano, cilantro leaves, fried tortilla strips, crumbled queso fresco, chopped white onion, crema and lime wedges.

Steps:

• Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Heat olive oil in the pot. Combine pork cubes, onion, garlic, chili powder, garlic salt, oregano, pepper, chipotle powder, and cumin in a bowl. Saute in the hot oil in small batches until pork is browned, about 5 minutes per batch. Turn off the pressure cooker.
• Add chicken broth, enchilada sauce, green chiles, and cilantro. Stir to blend. Close and lock the lid. Set cooker on high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 20 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 10 to 40 minutes. Unlock the lid and add hominy, stirring to blend.

Steps:

• Set an Instant Pot to saute on high. When the pot registers hot, add the dried chiles and cook until just beginning to soften, about 3 minutes. Add 1 cup water. Turn off the pot and put on the lid. Let sit until the chiles are completely softened, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a blender and puree until smooth. Use a rubber spatula to push the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a small bowl.
• Reset the pot to saute on high. When the pot registers hot, add the vegetable oil. Add the onion, garlic, 1 tablespoon salt and a few grinds of pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Turn off the pot.
• Add 6 cups water, the chile puree, hominy, cilantro, oregano and bay leaf to the pot. Put on and lock the lid; make sure the steam valve is in the sealing position. Set the pot to pressure-cook on high for 1 hour 10 minutes. When the time is up, carefully turn the steam valve to the venting position to manually release the pressure. Turn off the pot and remove the lid.
• Add the chicken to the pot and press to submerge in the liquid. Replace and lock the lid; return the steam valve to the sealing position. Set the pot to pressure-cook on high for 10 minutes. When the time is up, carefully turn the steam valve to the venting position to manually release the pressure. Turn off the pot and remove the lid.
• Discard the bay leaf. Transfer the chicken to a rimmed baking sheet and shred into bite-size pieces with two forks. Return to the pot along with any accumulated juices and stir to combine. Divide among bowls and top with dried oregano, radishes, queso fresco, cilantro, sour cream and/or cabbage. Serve with lime wedges.
