INSTRUCTIONS
soak quinoa in a bowl with water for about 5-minutes. Then, rinse thoroughly and sieve it under cool water. Set aside.
Place tofu on a sheet pan. Wrap it completely with a paper towel. Press it down for about 30-minutes with a cast-iron skillet or any jar or anything heavy. Then, drain the water and pat it dry using a paper towel. Cut it into 1-inch cubes.
Put your Instant Pot to sauté mode. Add extra virgin olive oil, chopped onions, bell pepper, green onions, chopped jalapenõs, and minced cloves of garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes. Press cancel for a moment and your Instant Pot should display "OFF"
Now add drained and rinsed quinoa, water. Stir lightly.Add Ground Cumin, Dried Oregano, and Chili Powder. Stir lightly until combined.
Add Chipotle peppers in canned adobo sauce, salsa (of your choice), canned black beans, salt, and pepper. Stir lightly, and cover the lid right away.
Put the vent to sealing position and press "Pressure Cook"/Manual Mode and set the timer for 5-6minutes.
Once done, allow pressure to release naturally for 5-6 minutes then position the vent to "venting position" and do a quick pressure release. Open the lid. Toss lightly, garnish with fresh chopped cilantro and lime wedges. Serve right away.
After you've sautéed the veggies, make sure you turn off the instant pot, or else the bottom of the liner might turn brown and your Instant Pot will display "food burn".
Don't stir too much after you've added everything. Just close the lid and cook.
Make sure the venting knob is in sealing position before you begin.
