Instant Pot Shrimp Scampi Food

INSTANT POT SHRIMP SCAMPI

Steps:

• Add the butter to your Instant Pot, and select "Sauté" and "Adjust" so it's on the "More" setting so the butter melts. Add the shallots and cook for about 2 minutes until lightly brown and then add the garlic and stir for another minute so it browns as well
• Next, add in the wine and deglaze the bottom. Let cook for 1 minute so the alcohol burns off and sauce thickens
• Then, add the frozen shrimp and pour the chicken broth and lemon juice over it as well as the salt, pepper and dried parsley flakes and give it a quick stir
• Secure the lid and hit "Manual" or "Pressure Cook" High Pressure for 1 minute (and only 1 minute). If using fresh and unfrozen shrimp, set for 0 minutes. Quick release when done and stir in the cheese to thicken (and add more to taste)
• Enjoy!

INSTANT POT SHRIMP SCAMPI PASTA

Steps:

• Heat Instant Pot on "Saute" function. Add butter, olive oil, shallots, and garlic. Cook, stirring constantly, until shallots soften, 2-3 minutes.
• Add wine and cook, stirring, until wine has reduced slightly, about 1 minute. Turn Instant Pot off.
• Add 1 ¼ cups broth to pot, scraping up any brown bits. Crack pasta in half and layer in a criss cross pattern. Add remaining broth and separate strands of pasta as much as possible. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes and then add frozen shrimp to the top, without stirring. Sprinkle with salt.
• Secure Instant Pot lid and turn valve to seal. Set on "Pressure Cook" or "Manual" (depending on your model) for 0 minutes (not a typo!). If your Instant Pot model will not accept 0 minutes as a setting, simply press Cancel when you hear the signal that it's reached full pressure.
• Once the Instant Pot has reached full pressure, immediately release pressure by doing a "quick release" and turning valve to vent.
• Remove cover and stir in Parmesan cheese, fresh parsley, and lemon juice.
• Taste and season with additional salt and red pepper flakes as needed. Serve immediately.

INSTANT POT SHRIMP SCAMPI

Steps:

• Toss shrimp, wine, and garlic in cooker insert; season with salt and pepper. Lock on lid, making sure steam-release valve is in the proper sealed position. Select "Manual" and program for 1 minute at high pressure.
• As soon as the time has elapsed, turn off cooker, "Quick Release" the steam, and unlock lid. The shrimp should be opaque all the way through. Using a slotted spoon, transfer shrimp to a medium bowl, leaving juices behind.
• Select "Sauté" and simmer liquid until reduced by half, about 6 minutes. Add butter and stir until melted and incorporated and sauce is thick. Return shrimp to pot, add parsley and lemon juice, and toss to combine. Transfer to a platter to serve.
