    Inspired by Japanese Hibachi, this Instant Pot Steak and Mushrooms is saucy, full of flavor, and tender! It’s a wonderfully hearty meal that’s perfect for a weeknight dinner!

    Step-by-step video instructions are down below!

    Inspired by Japanese Hibachi, this Instant Pot Steak and Mushrooms is saucy, full of flavour, and tender!


     

    Instant Pot Steak and Mushrooms (aka Instant Pot Hibachi Steak)

    I know – some of y’all are ride or die when it comes to cooking steak in your cast iron and cast iron only and using an Instant Pot for steak is a sin.

    But hear me out – cooking the steak bites in the Instant Pot makes it so tender as well as you can just pop in the meat, press pressure, and boom, you can leave the kitchen and do whatever you want. Who doesn’t like handsfree cooking?

    I also have an air fryer version of this steak and mushrooms recipe if you want to give it a go in your air fryer instead!

    What You Need To Make Instant Pot Hibachi Steak and Mushrooms

    • onions — I use a large sweet vilda onion, but you can use any type of onion you prefer.
    • steak — I use sirloin steak, but ribeye, tri-tip, skirt steak are great alternatives.
    • garlic — the more garlic the better! I grate the garlic so it melts into the sauce as it pressure cooks. You can also mince the garlic instead.
    • salt and pepper
    • mushroom — I have baby bella mushrooms that I cut in quarters. You can use white button mushrooms or even shiitake mushrooms!
    • soy sauce — I recommend using low sodium soy sauce and then adding more salt to the dish at the end if needed.
    • beef stock or broth — just like the soy sauce, I recommend using low sodium when possible so you have a better control over the amount of salt added.
    • cornstarch — cornstarch will help thicken the sauce at the end, so you get a luscious sauce coating the steak and mushrooms.

    How To Make Instant Pot Steak and Mushrooms

    In your Instant Pot, layer in your onions, steak, garlic, salt, mushrooms and pepper, soy sauce, beef broth, and close the lid. Set the lid to sealing and set the Instant Pot to 4 minutes under high pressure.

    Once done, quick release.

    To thicken the sauce, you can remove the beef and mushrooms or leave it in the pot, turn on the sauté function, and stir in a cornstarch slurry (1 tbsp cornstarch to 1 tbsp water).

    Serve immediately or store in an airtight container.

    TIPS AND NOTES ON MAKING THIS AIR FRYER STEAK BITE RECIPE

    I like to serve this alongside jasmine rice – other ideas include sesame noodles, mashed potatoes, or roasted Brussels sprouts.

    If you are meal prepping and don’t want the rice/carb mixing with your steak, you can get containers that have dividers to keep them apart!

    If you are interested in a meat subscription so you’ll always have meat in your freezer, check out ButcherBox for hormone and antibiotic-free meat delivered to your door!

    For some extra heat, you can add a sprinkling of red pepper flakes or tablespoon of sriracha sauce to the pressure cooker before pressure cooking.

      Does this recipe have a strong garlic taste? Five cloves seem like a lot.

        I don’t personally find it too much. However, you’re welcomed to decrease the amount if you are concerned.

      This looks delicious for dinner tonight. I’m concerned that it doesn’t call for one total cup of liquid though.

            This is one of my favorite recipes!

            How long would it need to be under pressure for frozen steaks (whole)?

      I made this tonite – used 2 lbs of strip steak, so increased soy sauce & water to 1/2c each. Also doubled the corn starch slurry. Noticed the recipe directions omitted putting the mushrooms in w/onion, steak, garlic (FYI).
      It was perfectly cooked, and SO DELICIOUS (and I don’t really like mushrooms – but they were cooked, but still firm, and REALLY GOOD)!!
      We will definitely be making this again!! YUM!!!😍👏🏻

      I’m planning to make this tonight! Do I cook the steak in one piece and then cut to serve, or should I cut it before I put it in the pot? I’m new to this IP thing!

        Hi Jen, near the first half of the post, there is a video (if there’s an ad blocker on your browser, you’ll have to turn it off to see it I think). It shows you step by step how I make it. It shows how my steak is cut before cooking.

      Haven’t made it yet, but how long should I cook for if my husband and I like our steak rare? I am assuming this will be well done…

        Unfortunately, I’ve never tried it. The goal of this recipe was to make melty tender beef. In theory, you could reduce the time but I’m not sure how it’ll turn out. Please let me know if you try it!

      Ok I tried this tonight. The meat was not tender it actually came out a little tough and chewy. What did I do wrong?

      • Carmy says

        September 17, 2020 at 3:21 pm

        What type of cut of meat did you use? Another way to prevent meat from coming out chewy is to decrease the cook time and make up for it with a natural pressure release! I haven’t had any issues with chewy steak but this could help :)

      I tried this recipe twice and it was delicious both times. I used chicken broth once and it was just as good. Adding cornstarch at the end is good to make the gravy thick and savory.
