Instant Pot Shrimp Risotto With Peas Recipes

INSTANT POT® SHRIMP RISOTTO WITH PEAS

Steps:

• Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function on normal setting according to manufacturer's instructions. Add 2 tablespoons butter and olive oil; stir in shallot and garlic and cook until softened, about 1 minute. Stir in rice and cook until coated and toasted, about 3 minutes. Add wine, scraping and deglazing the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon; cook until wine has evaporated, about 1 minute. Turn off Saute function.
• Stir in chicken broth, clam juice, thyme, and red pepper flakes. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 6 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, for 5 minutes. Release remaining pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions.
• While pressure is releasing on the pot, melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and season with paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook until shrimp are opaque, about 3 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid on the Instant Pot®.
• Stir shrimp, peas, Parmesan cheese, and remaining butter into rice mixture. Divide among bowls and serve.

Steps:

• Heat seafood stock in a microwave-safe container for about 3 minutes on High. Leave in the microwave until ready to use.
• Slice green onions. Separate green and white parts.
• Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Melt 1 tablespoon butter. Add garlic and white part of the green onions. Season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring, until onion has softened and garlic is fragrant, about 2 1/2 minutes. Add rice and thyme. Saute, stirring occasionally, until rice begins to have a little color, about 3 minutes.
• Pour in wine and cook, stirring, until wine evaporates, about 30 seconds. Stir in the heated seafood stock, making sure contents of the pot move freely. Turn off Saute function.
• Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 5 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Add shrimp, peas, and reserved green onion tops. Close the lid and allow the shrimp to cook using the Keep Warm function, about 7 minutes. Open lid and check to see if shrimp are done.
• Add grated Parmesan cheese and remaining 1 tablespoon butter, stirring until butter is melted. Serve with fresh parsley and lemon wedges.

INSTANT POT SHRIMP RISOTTO

Steps:

• Divide the shrimp into two batches. Keep one batch frozen and place the other batch in a bowl of lukewarm water to defrost. You may need to swap the water once it cools down.
• Press the Saute button on the Instant Pot and once hot, add the olive oil and butter to the pot.
• Add onions, celery and salt and cook for 2-3 minutes to soften.
• Add garlic, lemon zest, rice (unwashed) and stir through.
• Press Cancel to stop the Saute process.
• Pour in the 4 cups of stock. Stir through, making sure to scrape the bottom of the pot to prevent anything from being stuck.
• Add half of the frozen shrimp on top of the rice, no need to stir.
• Lock the lid and set to pressure cook on HIGH for 5 minutes. Once done, naturally release the pressure for about 2-3 minutes and then do the quick release. Don't leave on natural release for longer than that!
• While the risotto is cooking, pan-fry the defrosted shrimp in a little oil and butter for 2-3 minutes until pink and slightly browned. Season with a little salt. Remove and set aside.
• Add the frozen peas to a bowl with boiling water and allow to defrost. You may need to swap the water once it cools down. Strain and set the peas aside.
• Open the lid. Add butter, grated Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, pepper and defrosted peas and stir through the hot risotto.
• Taste for salt and add more if needed.
• Finish by topping the risotto with pan-fried shrimp and scallions or chives.

PRESSURE COOKER PORCINI RISOTTO

Steps:

• Heat the oil over high heat in a 2 1/2-quart or larger stovetop pressure cooker, or in an electric pressure cooker using the sauté function. Add the onions, and cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently. Stir in the rice, taking care to coat it with the oil. Cook for 30 seconds, stirring constantly.
• Stir in the wine. Cook over high heat until the rice has absorbed the wine, about 30 seconds. Stir in 3 cups of the broth and the porcini, taking care to scrape up any rice that might be sticking to the bottom of the cooker.
• Lock the lid in place. Over high heat, bring to high pressure. Reduce the heat just enough to maintain high pressure, and cook for 4 minutes. Turn off the heat. Quick-release the pressure by setting the cooker under cold running water. Remove the lid, tilting it away from you to allow the steam to escape. If using an electric cooker, cook at high pressure for 4 minutes. Manually release the pressure.
• Set the cooker over medium-high heat or turn on the sauté function, and stir vigorously. The risotto will look fairly soupy at this point. Boil while stirring every minute or so, until the mixture thickens and the rice is tender but still chewy, 1 to 4 minutes. Stir in the peas when the rice is almost done. (if the mixture becomes dry before the rice is done, stir in the extra 1/2 cup of broth. The finished risotto should be slightly runny; it will continue to thicken as it sits on the plate.)
• Turn off the heat. Stir in the Parmesan, and salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately, garnished with a little parsley. Pass extra Parmesan at the table.
