Instant Pot Shrimp Scampi Recipes

INSTANT POT SHRIMP SCAMPI

Steps:

• Saute Shrimp: Set the Instant Pot on SAUTE function kept at NORMAL. Add 3 tbsp butter and when the butter is moderately hot gently release the de-shelled, de-veined shrimps. Saute for about 1 min or until the shrimp turn pink. Set them aside in a clean dry bowl. This will add more flavor. However, you can skip this step & than add the frozen thawed raw shrimp directly into the sauce just before pressure cooking.
• De-glaze Pot: Add 2 tbsp olive oil in the same pot and gently release the chopped garlic. Saute until the garlic is just fragrant. Next, pour the white wine and add all the seasonings along with salt. De-glaze the pot very well so that there are absolutely no bits and crumbs stuck at the bottom of the pot.
• Pressure Cook: Add back the sautéed shrimp and just 3 tbsp water. Layer the Shrimp. Throw in the lemon rings on top. CANCEL the SAUTE function. Close the lid of the Instant Pot & seal the valve. Pressure Cook on HIGH for just 0 minutes. You can do this by pressing the PRESSURE COOK Button and than press down the adjust button to set the time to zero. Once, the pressure cooking cycle is over the Instant Pot will begin to beep. Do a Quick Pressure Release (QPR) immediately by moving the valve from the SEALING to the VENTING position.
• Serve: When the pin drops open the lid carefully. Garnish with chopped parsley and enjoy! You can serve the Shrimp Scampi with Zucchini Noodles, a light salad or steamed veggies.

Steps:

• Add the butter, olive oil and garlic to a 6- or 8-quart Instant Pot® multi-cooker and set to high saute (see Cook's Note). Cook, stirring often, until the garlic is softened but not browned, about 3 minutes. Add the wine, lemon juice and zest, red pepper flakes, 2 teaspoons salt and several grinds of pepper. Bring to a boil and let simmer 1 minute. Add 2 cups water, then add half of the pasta all in one direction and then the other half of the pasta in a criss-cross fashion. Top with the shrimp and half of the scallions.
• Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 1 minute. After the pressure-cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for natural release. After 5 minutes, being careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid.
• Using tongs, toss the pasta to evenly coat with the sauce and break up any clumps. Top with the remaining scallions and serve with salad and garlic bread if using.
