Steps:

• Heat seafood stock in a microwave-safe container for about 3 minutes on High. Leave in the microwave until ready to use.

• 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.

INSTANT POT LEMONY SHRIMP RISOTTO

• Set the Instant Pot or other multicooker to Sauté and add 1 tablespoon of the extra virgin olive oil. When the oil is hot add the shrimp and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt.

Lock the lid and set to cook on high pressure for 6 minutes.
