Add HALF of the fire roasted tomatoes to beef mixture and lightly toss to combine.
Fill peppers with beef mixture.
Add water to the bottom of the Instant Pot and top with the remaining fire roasted tomatoes. Place the steam rack over the tomatoes.
Now place the stuffed peppers on top of the steam rack.
Secure the lid. Turn the steam release to SEALING and press MANUAL. Set the time to 8 minutes.
Let the pressure release naturally before removing the lid.
Garnishing:
Remove each pepper and place in a baking dish. Top with cheese.
Place in oven on broil for 4-5 minutes. Top with cilantro, jalapeños, green onions, sour cream or any other ingredients you desire!
