Author: D. Durand Worthey

Ingredients

  • 5 lbs oxtails
  • 1 can 28 0z Red Gold stewed tomatoes, drained
  • 3/4 cup green onion
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil divided
  • 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt more as needed
  • 1 teaspoon smoked sweet paprika
  • 1 tablespoon ground curry
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning
  • 1/2 tablespoon freshly cracked black peppercorns
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup dry red wine
  • 1 1/2 cups chicken beef or vegetable stock
  • 4 garlic cloves
  • 2 yellow onions
  • 1 cup shaved carrots
  • 1 sprig fresh rosemary

Instructions

  • Remove the oxtails from the package, rinse and pat them dry. Place them into a large bowl, add one tablespoon of EVOO, ground curry, Old Bay seasoning, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and two tablespoons of all-purpose flour. Cover the bowl with a large kitchen towel and allow the oxtails and seasoning to rest at room temperature for 15- 20 minutes.
  • Add two tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil to the Instant Pot and press the Sauté button, when the oil is hot brown the oxtails on all sides, use a pair of tongs to turn the oxtails over and don't forget to brown the sides as well. Do not pierce the meat by using a fork; you want to keep the juices inside the meat as much as possible.
  • Remove the oxtails from the Instant Pot and place them onto a plate. Set aside.
  • Add an additional tablespoon of EVOO to the Instant Pot and sauté the sliced onions, minced garlic, and shaved carrots for two minutes.
  • Add the beef (chicken or vegetable) stock and make sure to scrape up any brown bits from the bottom of the Instant Pot.
  • Place the oxtail into the Instant Pot and add one can of drained whole tomatoes.
  • Cover and lock the Instant Pot lid into place and make sure the vent is closed. Set the Manual timer for 40 minutes, and engage the Pressure.
  • When the timer chirps, vent the Instant Pot and allow the oxtails to set for 10 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Let's eat!
