Instant Pot Shrimp Scampi
Ingredients:
1 lb of peeled, deveined and frozen large shrimp
2 tbsp (1/4 stick) of salted butter
2 shallots, diced
1 tbsp of crushed garlic
1/4 cup of white cooking wine
1/2 cup of chicken broth
Juice of one lemon, freshly squeezed
1/2 tsp of kosher salt
1/2 tsp of ground black pepper
1 tbsp of dried parsley flakes
1 tbsp of Parmesan cheese
A loaf of crusty Italian or French bread, for dipping in the sauce
Directions:
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)
