Description
This hearty and flavorful beef roast cooked in the Instant Pot combines classic French onion soup ingredients for a comforting dish.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 pounds beef chuck roast
- 2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 (10) can condensed French onion soup
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
Instructions
- Set the Instant Pot to sauté mode. Add butter and olive oil, then cook sliced onions for 6-8 minutes until softened and golden.
- Add minced garlic, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Push onions to the side and sear the beef chuck roast on all sides until browned, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Pour in French onion soup, beef broth, and Worcestershire sauce. Scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
- Cancel sauté mode. Seal the Instant Pot and cook on high pressure for 70 minutes. Allow a natural release for 15 minutes before opening the lid.
- Transfer the roast to a platter. Stir the onion sauce and spoon over the sliced roast to serve.
Notes
- A natural release of the pressure helps retain the moisture of the beef roast.
- Feel free to adjust the seasoning according to your taste.
