Moroccan-Style Instant Pot Chickpea Stew

Step 1

Turn the Instant Pot on and press the Sauté function key. Once slightly heated, add the onion and olive oil and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add the garlic and spices and stir through for 30 seconds. Add the rest of the ingredients and stir through. Press Cancel to stop the Sauté function.

Step 2

Pop the lid on top, lock it (making sure the steam valve is pointing to Sealing) and set the Instant Pot to Manual, HIGH, for 10 Minutes. After 3 beeps, the IP will start to build up the pressure and the cooking will begin. Once the timer goes off, allow 10 minutes for the pressure to release naturally, and then use a quick release to let off the rest of the steam (simply point the sealing valve to Venting).

Step 3

Open the lid and stir the stew. We like to let it sit for 5 minutes before serving it with some fresh herbs on top. You can serve a side of cooked rice, couscous or crusty bread with this stew.
