Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups dried black eyed peas
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 smoked ham hock or 1 cup diced smoked sausage
  • 4 cups chicken broth (low sodium)
  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 bay leaf

    • Instructions

  • Rinse the dried black eyed peas in cold water. Remove any debris and set aside.
  • Set your Instant Pot to the sauté function. Add the olive oil, onion, and garlic, sautéing until the onion becomes translucent.
  • Stir in the diced smoked sausage or place the ham hock in the pot, letting it mingle with the aromas.
  • Add the black eyed peas, chicken broth, salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and bay leaf. Stir well to combine.
  • Seal the Instant Pot, select high pressure, and set the timer for 15 minutes. Once the cooking time is complete, allow for a natural pressure release for 10 minutes.
