30 MINS OR LESS

Alambres are a traditional Mexican dish similar to fajitas, with the latter being more of a Tex-Mex dish. And if we’re being completely honest, I prefer alambres to fajitas because alambres have bacon. Sizzling strips of bacon, onion, and an assortment of chiles can’t be beat! Alambres can be made with beef, pork, chicken, shrimp, or even portobello mushrooms for a semi-meatless meal. For my vegetarian friends, you can omit the bacon, cheese, and sour cream.

6 bacon slices, cut into 1-inch pieces

1 medium white onion, thinly sliced

3 Roasted Poblano Peppers, peeled, seeded, and cut into thin strips

2 red bell peppers, thinly sliced

4 portobello mushrooms, stemmed and thinly sliced

1 teaspoon ground cumin

½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Coarse salt

1½ cups shredded Manchego cheese

Warm flour tortillas, for serving (optional)

Guacamole, for garnish

Sour cream, for garnish

Salsa, for garnish

1.Set the Instant Pot® to Sauté and adjust to More for high. Fry the bacon in the pot for 4 to 6 minutes, or until golden and crisp. Add the onion, poblano peppers, and bell peppers. Sauté for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the onion is translucent. Add the portobello mushrooms; season with the cumin, pepper, and salt.

2.Lock the lid into place and set the steam release valve to sealed. Select Manual and set the timer for 5 minutes on high.

3.When cooking is complete, quick release the pressure. Unlock and remove the lid.

4.Sprinkle the Manchego cheese over the portobello mushrooms and peppers. Let set for 5 minutes, or until the cheese has melted completely. Serve the alambres with warm flour tortillas (if desired). Garnish with guacamole, sour cream, and your favorite salsa.

Option tip: Add a drained 20-ounce can of crushed pineapple in with the portobellos for a fun, tropical version I like to call alambres Hawaianos.
