I adore French Onion Soup, so making these Instant Pot French Onion Meatballs was calling me. The savory caramelized onions with a delicious broth smothered in cheese. YES PLEASE
Set Instant Pot / Pressure Cooker to Saute and wait until it reads “Hot”
Add Butter and sliced onions and saute. Cook for 10-12 minutes or until onions begin to turn brown and caramelize.
Add fresh Thyme and garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutesSprinkle flour over onions and stir.
Add 1 cup of broth to deglaze Instant Pot by lifting up any stuck bits
Turn off Instant PotAdd in remaining broth, wine, mustard, balsamic vinegar, Worcestershire sauce and stir
Place frozen meatballs on top and close lid making sure pressure valve is in the closed position
Set to Pressure Cook High for 1 minute and Quick Release the Pressure
Serve as an Appetizer with Toothpicks OR over Rice or Noodles as a meal
Notes
I own 4 Pressure Cookers and each one tends to saute a little differently. I find some are quicker than others. So watch your onions, they may cook faster than mine did!To serve as an appetizerServe on sliced toasted baguette or with toothpicksTo serve as a mealServe over Rice OR Pasta
