Ingredientes

1 1/2 cups (300 g) dried brown or green lentils, rinsed and drained

3 1/2 cups chicken or vegetable broth (see note)

2 teaspoons chili powder

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon smoked or sweet paprika

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Instrucciones

In a 6-quart electric pressure cooker, combine the lentils, broth, chili powder, cumin, salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder and pepper.

Secure the lid and valve and cook on high for 12 minutes. Let the pressure naturally release for 10 minutes before releasing remaining pressure.

Drain off any excess liquid, if desired. Stir in salsa and season to taste with additional salt and pepper, if needed (this is important for flavor!).

Optional: lightly mash the lentils, if desired.

The lentil mixture will thicken a bit if left to sit/keep warm in the pressure cooker.

Serve the lentils warm in taco shells with your choice of toppings.
