Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Instant Pot Jamaican Oxtail Stew Delight.
Step 1
In a mixing bowl, combine brown sugar, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, salt, garlic powder, black pepper, allspice, cinnamon, and liquid smoke to create a flavorful marinade.
Step 2
Add the oxtails, ensuring they are thoroughly coated.
Step 3
Set your Instant Pot to the Sauté function.
Step 4
Once heated, drizzle in vegetable oil and place the oxtails flat-side down.
Step 5
Sear the oxtails for about five minutes until they are beautifully browned on all sides, then transfer them to a bowl and set aside.
Step 6
Pour two tablespoons of beef broth into the pot to deglaze, using a wooden spoon to scrape up any delicious browned bits.
Step 7
Toss in chopped carrots, onion, green onions, minced garlic, and Scotch bonnet pepper, sautéing for about five minutes until the onions soften and release their aroma.
Step 8
Return the browned oxtails to the pot, adding the remaining beef broth, ketchup, and dried thyme.
Step 9
Cancel the Sauté function.
Step 10
Secure the lid of the Instant Pot, select high pressure according to the manufacturer's guidelines, and set the timer for 45 minutes.
Step 11
Allow 10 to 15 minutes for the pressure to build.
Step 12
When the cooking time is up, release the pressure naturally, which may take 20 to 40 minutes.
Step 13
Carefully unlock and remove the lid.
Step 14
Gently lift the oxtails and vegetables from the pot, leaving the flavorful liquid behind.
Step 15
Set the Instant Pot to Sauté once more and bring the liquid to a gentle simmer.
Step 16
In a small bowl, mix water and cornstarch, then stir this slurry into the simmering liquid.
Step 17
Add rinsed pinto beans and let everything simmer for about five minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and the beans are warmed through.
Step 18
Finally, return the oxtails and vegetables to the pot, stirring to combine all the rich flavors.
Step 19
Enjoy this comforting dish that brings warmth and satisfaction to your table.
