Description
I have baked, grilled, steamed on the stovetop, and even air fried oysters, but steaming in the Instant Pot® is hands down the best method. They are easy to open up and tender without any rubbery texture whatsoever.
Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- 20 fresh oysters in shells, rinsed and scrubbed clean
- 2 teaspoons Mexican-style hot sauce (such as Valentina®)
- ½ teaspoon dried parsley flakes
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- Pour water into a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and set trivet inside. Place oysters on the trivet. Close and lock the lid. Select Steam function according to manufacturer’s instructions; set timer for 2 minutes. Allow 15 minutes for pressure to build.
- Meanwhile
- stir hot sauce and parsley into the melted butter until well combined.
- Release pressure using quick release according to manufacture’s directions
- 3 to 5 minutes.
- Carefully open the oysters using a spoon; set on a serving plate. Spoon butter over the top.
