Instructions

  • Step 1

    Set the Instant Pot to sauté mode and add the olive oil.

  • Step 2

    Add the onion, carrots and celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften, about three minutes.

  • Step 3

    Add the garlic, cumin, oregano, and salt. Cook for one minute.

  • Step 4

    Add the broth, water, tomatoes, chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, split peas, and potatoes.

  • Step 5
