oxtail

🥗Healthier: beef shank

💰Cheaper: chicken thighs

Chicken thighs are more affordable and still provide a rich flavor.

red wine

🥗Healthier: grape juice

💰Cheaper: white vinegar

Grape juice adds sweetness without alcohol, while vinegar provides acidity.

Add garlic powder, soy sauce, adobo, oregano, white vinegar, and red wine to a bowl and stir well.

Set the Instant Pot to sauté and add a little corn oil.

Once the oil is hot, add the marinated oxtail and sear it all around for about 10 minutes.

After searing, take the leftover seasoning, add a little water, and pour it into the oxtail.

Stir to ensure nothing is sticking to the bottom of the pot.

Add onions, peppers, olives, and tomato sauce to the pot and stir again.

Cover the Instant Pot and cook on high pressure for about 50 minutes.

After 50 minutes, let the pressure release naturally for about 15 minutes.

Serve the tender oxtail over rice.
