Pressure Cooker
Use a 6-qt. electric or stove-top pressure cooker. Sprinkle meat with black pepper. For electric cooker, use sauté setting to brown meat, one-third at a time, in oil; for stove-top cooker, brown meat, one-third at a time, in oil directly in pot. Stir in next nine ingredients (through tomato paste). Lock lid in place. Set electric cooker on high pressure to cook 20 minutes. For stove-top cooker, bring up to pressure over medium-high heat according to manufacturer’s directions; reduce heat enough to maintain steady (but not excessive) pressure. Cook 20 minutes. Remove from heat. For electric or stove-top cooker, let stand to release pressure naturally, at least 15 minutes. If needed, carefully open steam vent to release any remaining pressure. Open lid carefully. Season to taste with salt and additional black pepper. Serve with desired toppings.
