Ingredients
  • 3/4 cup dry white wine
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 tsp peeled and minced garlic
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 2 lbs frozen peeled and deveined raw medium shrimp
Instructions
  • Mix the wine, butter, oil, garlic, oregano, and red pepper flakes in an Instant Pot. Stir in the shrimp and lock the lid onto the pot.
  • Option 1 Max Pressure Cooker
    Press Pressure cook on Max pressure for 0 minutes with the Keep Warm setting off.
  • Optional 2 All Pressure Cookers
    Press Pressure Cook or Manual on High pressure for 0 minutes with the Keep Warm setting off. The vent must be closed.
  • Use the quick-­release method to bring the pot’s pressure back tonormal. Unlatch the lid and open the cooker. Pour the hot shrimp and sauce into a bowl to serve.
Notes
  • Beyond
    • For an 8-quart Instant Pot, you must increase all the ingredients except the shrimp by 50 percent. However, you can increase the shrimp by
    50 percent as well, if you like.
    • You can make this dish with giant shrimp, such as frozen U-10s (that is, under 10 shrimp per pound) or even U-5s.
    Note that you’ll need to set the pressure to 1 minute for either MAX or HIGH, followed by a quick release.
    • Shrimp scampi is served over pasta in lots of Italian American restaurants. We recommend cooked and drained angel hair pasta.
