INSTANT POT® PEEL-AND-EAT SHRIMP

Instant Pot® Peel-and-Eat Shrimp image

Peel-and-eat shrimp is easy to do on the stovetop but even easier in your Instant Pot®. Not only do you not have to wait for the pot of water to boil, you also don't need a lot of liquid, which means way less seasoning is needed to flavor. Serve with crusty bread if desired.
