Now that you have gathered your ingredients it is time to make salsa verde beef filling. All you have to do is follow the steps below:

The first thing you’ll do is set your pressure cooker to the Saute setting. Add your vegetable oil and then your ground beef and seasonings.

Cook until the meat is halfway cooked, then turn off the saute function. Add the salsa verde and beef broth, stirring well.

Next, choose the High-Pressure setting and put the lid on the cooker, locking it in place. Make sure the valve is shut. It will take time for the cooker to come up to pressure. Once it does, it will cook for four minutes.

Once the four minutes are over, use the quick release method by carefully opening the vent. Remove the lid once the pressure is fully released, and serve over rice.

If you want to use for tacos or burritos, you can hit the Saute button again and cook for 5 minutes or until the liquid has reduced to the consistency you like.
