Ingredients

Oxtail and seasoning

  • 1 oxtail cut up in pieces
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp adobo
  • 1/2 tsp ground oregano
  • 1/4 cup white vinegar
  • 1/4 cup red wine your favorite one, I used pinot noir

Instant pot cooking

  • 2 tbsp corn oil
  • 1/4 yellow onion chopped
  • 1/4 cup peppers or just one pepper I used yellow but you can combine colors
  • 1/4 cup manzanilla olives chopped
  • 1/4 cup tomato sauce
  • seasoning liquid left in the bowl
  • 3 tbsp water

Garnish

  • Chopped cilantro to taste

Instructions

  • Rinse your oxtails and thoroughly drain.
  • Season oxtails with garlic powder, soy sauce, adobo, oregano, white vinegar and red wine. Mix well. You can refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight. You can also immediately cook. But the longer it seasons, the better flavor it will have.
  • Set Instant Pot to Sauté mode, add oil and heat up for a few minutes.
  • Once oil is heated, add the oxtails and lightly brown all sides. Reserve the liquid from the seasoning.
  • After browning the oxtails, add the seasoning liquid into the Instant Pot and the water. Stir.
  • Add onions, peppers, olives and tomato sauce. Stir well.
  • Set Instant pot to High Pressure and cook for 50 minutes.
  • Once the cooking is done, allow pressure to release on it own for 15 minutes.
  • Uncover carefully.
  • Move oxtails to serving dish with desired amount of sauce.
  • Top with with chopped cilantro and enjoy!
