INSTANT POT® HONEY-MUSTARD SALMON FROM FROZEN



Instant Pot® Honey-Mustard Salmon from Frozen image

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!

Time 35m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 (6 ounce) fillets frozen salmon fillets
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 cup water, or as needed
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard
2 teaspoons olive oil

Steps:

  • 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, ensuring the water does not cover the trivet. Place fillets skin-side down on the trivet in a single layer.
  • Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 4 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
  • Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions immediately after cooking time is over, about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, mix together honey, mustard, and olive oil in a small bowl.
  • 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.
  • Unlock and remove the Instant Pot® lid. Carefully transfer cooked fillets onto the prepared baking sheet, skin-side down. Spread 1/2 of the honey-mustard glaze over each fillet.
  • Broil salmon fillets for 2 minutes. Serve immediately.
