Follow The Directions

01

Step

Turn on your Instant Pot and select the 'Sauté' function. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in the pot. Sear the chuck roast in the hot oil until browned on all sides (approximately 10 minutes). Remove the roast and set aside. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the pot. Sauté the onion, ginger, garlic, salt, and pepper until the onion becomes translucent (about 5 minutes). Add the water, tamari, stevia, and bouillon cube.

02

Step

Return the roast to the Instant Pot. Close and lock the lid. Set the pressure to High and the timer to 60 minutes. Allow 10-15 minutes for the pressure to build.

03

Step

After the timer is up, let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes. Then, carefully release any remaining pressure using the quick-release method (about 5 minutes). Unlock and remove the lid. Transfer the roast to a plate.

04

Step

Add the red bell peppers to the pot and whisk in the arrowroot powder. Select 'Sauté' mode again. Cook and stir until the sauce thickens and the bell peppers soften (approximately 5 minutes).

05

Step

Return the roast to the pot. Stir until heated through (about 3 minutes). Garnish generously with chopped cilantro before serving.

For a richer flavor, marinate the chuck roast in a mixture of tamari, ginger, and garlic for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, before searing.
Adjust the amount of stevia to your preference for sweetness.
If you don't have arrowroot powder, cornstarch can be used as a substitute. Use the same amount.
Serve this pot roast with a side of steamed rice or mashed potatoes to soak up the delicious sauce.
