Instant Pot® Honey-Mustard Salmon from Frozen

by

Description

Frozen salmon fillets are so economical, but I often forget to defrost them! This recipe calls for adding frozen salmon fillets directly to your Instant Pot® for a perfectly cooked fillet in mere minutes. I finish the salmon under the broiler for just 2 minutes with a honey-mustard glaze on top. Delicious!

Ingredients

  • 2 (6 ounce) fillets frozen salmon fillets
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 cup water, or as needed
  • 1 tablespoon honey

  1. Season frozen salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Place a trivet inside a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and pour in 1 cup of water

  5. about 5 minutes.
  6. Meanwhile
  7. mix together honey
  8. mustard
  9. and olive oil in a small bowl.
  10. Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven’s broiler to high. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
