INSTANT POT INDIAN SHRIMP BIRYANI

Steps:

• Mix the yogurt with the mint and cilantro in a small bowl until well combined. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Toss the shrimp with 1/4 teaspoon of the curry powder, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Turn a 6-quart Instant Pot® to the saute setting (see Cook's Note) and add 4 tablespoons of the butter. When melted, add half of the shrimp and cook, tossing once or twice, until the shrimp are just turning orange and starting to brown but are not completely cooked, 3 to 4 minutes; transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining shrimp. Set aside.
• Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the ginger, turmeric, paprika, garlic and remaining 1 teaspoon curry powder and cook until the garlic and ginger are softened and the spices are fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the rice, 1 1/2 cups water, 2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of black pepper and stir to combine.
• Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 3 minutes.
• After the pressure-cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for quick release and wait until the quick-release cycle is complete. Being care of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid. Add the shrimp to the pot and stir to combine with the rice. Turn the pot to the normal saute setting and put on the lid. Let the shrimp cook until completely opaque throughout, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve in bowls with a dollop of herbed yogurt.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Put the squash and zucchini on a baking sheet, drizzle with some olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until golden, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the butter, red pepper flakes, garlic, lemon zest, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a couple of grinds of pepper in a large microwave-safe bowl and microwave until the butter is melted, about 1 minute. Drizzle the bread evenly with 2 tablespoons of the butter mixture and sprinkle with the cheese; set aside. Toss the shrimp with the remaining butter mixture.
• After the squash and zucchini have roasted for 15 minutes, remove the baking sheet and flip the vegetables, moving them to the center third of the baking sheet. Put the bread on one outer third of the baking sheet and the shrimp on the other. Slide the vegetables closer to the bread so that the shrimp is in a single, even layer. (This is to ensure even cooking.) Return to the oven and cook until the shrimp are cooked through and the bread is golden, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Sprinkle with parsley and serve with lemon wedges.
