Oh my heavens….the Instant Pot just works wonders on so many different types of meals….including this one.
The beef strips are perfectly tenderized and cooked in the Instant Pot, and you end up with the this lemon-garlic infused beef that melts into the gyro and into your mouth! The acidity from the lemon and vinegar soften the beef, plus the pressure-heat of the IP infuse the garlic and onion flavors.
Woooo-weeeee – you’re gonna love these steak gyros!
