11 steps · 14 min

01
Sauté Onion and Pepper
Set your pressure cooker to sauté mode. Once it's hot, add the 1 tablespoon olive oil, along with the chopped onion and bell pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes, until they start to soften.
02
Brown the Beef
Add the 1 pound ground beef to the pot. Break it up with a spoon and continue to stir until the beef is fully browned and no pink remains.
03
Add Spices
Add the cayenne pepper, garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, pepper, and oregano. Stir to combine with the beef and vegetables.
04
Stir in Tomatoes and Beans
Pour in the 28 ounces crushed tomatoes and 14 ounces kidney beans. Stir everything together well.
05
Add Broth and Macaroni
Pour in the 3 cups chicken broth and 2 cups elbow macaroni. Stir the mixture gently, making sure the macaroni is mostly submerged in the liquid.
06
Cancel Sauté
Press the 'Cancel' button on your Instant Pot to turn off the sauté function.
07
Pressure Cook
Secure the lid on the pressure cooker, making sure it's locked into place. Set the vent to 'Sealing' and set the manual cook time for 4 minutes.
08
Release Pressure
Once the cooking time finishes, carefully switch the valve to 'Venting' for a quick pressure release. Wait until the pressure pin drops completely before unlocking the lid.
09
Stir Chili Mac
Remove the lid and give the chili mac a good stir to combine all the ingredients.
10
Stir in Cheese
Add the 2 cups Monterey Jack cheese to the hot chili mac and stir until it's fully melted and creamy.
11
Serve
Ladle into bowls and add any toppings you like before serving.
