- one 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes (I used fire-roasted)

- 2 teaspoons dried Mexican oregano (regular dried oregano may be substituted)

- Turn on your Instant Pot to Saute, add the oil, then add the meat in batches to brown it, taking care not to overcrowd the pan. Set is aside after it’s browned.
- To a separate cast iron pan, heat the chiles over medium-high heat until pliable; set them aside.
- Heat 2 cups of the broth (reserve the remaining 3 cups) until very hot. Cover the chiles with the hot broth (either add them to the pan or put them in a large enough bowl and then pour the broth over the top.**** (See Notes)
- Place the softened chiles in the canister of a blender, add 1 cup of the soaking broth, and blend until super smooth. Very important tip - Make sure you are only using broth from the top because no matter how much you wash chiles, there is always some sediment and dirt that will release into the soaking liquid and you don't want to transfer this into the blender so carefully make sure you're just using 1 cup of sediment-free broth from the top of your soaking bowl. Discard everything else that remains.
- Add the canned diced tomatoes and blend again until very smooth.
- Take the very smooth blended chile mixture and pour it into a sieve or fine mesh strainer, and using a spatula push the mixture through, leaving the pulp behind and then discard it; set strained mixture aside.
- To the Instant Pot, add the onions, and Saute for 2 to 3 minutes, or until softened; if the Pot is too hot and onions are browning too fast, just turn it off and keep cooking with the residual heat that remains.
- Pour the reserved chile sauce into the pot, add the paprika, oregano, cumin, garlic, and stir to combine.
- Add the reserved browned meat, add the 3 cups reserved and previously unused broth, and stir to combine.
- Place the lid on the Instant Pot, seal, turn it to the Meat setting, and set the time for 30 minutes.
- When the time is finished, allow it to do a Natural Release for 10 minutes.
- Then do a Quick Release.
- Spoon out 1/2 cup of the sauce mixture, stir in the maseca, and stir this back into the Instant Pot.
- Turn the Instant Pot to Saute, and saute for about 10 minutes to thicken the sauce a bit.
- Taste the mixture, and if desired, add additional salt, pepper, etc. to taste.
- Serve with rice, tortillas, or bread. Extra Chile Colorado will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 4 months. Reheat gently as desired.
