Ingredients
- 1-1 ½ pounds cod fillet each ½ in thick (4 pieces)
- 1 cup water
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Pour the water into the Instant Pot. Add the trivet and place the frozen fish directly on the trivet. Season with salt, pepper and any other seasoning you’d like.
- Place the lid on and move the valve to sealing. Press manual pressure and set the timer to 2 minutes high pressure. You’ll notice the Instant Pot will start to come to pressure first and then the timer will begin. It can take 8-10 minutes to come to pressure.
- When the cook time is up, carefully do a quick release; then open and remove the lid. Check the internal temperature of the fish to make sure it’s 140°F or higher. If it’s not, seal again and cook for an additional 30 seconds.
- Carefully remove the trivet from the pot and discard any cooking liquid and grease. Use the cooked fish as desired in a recipe.
Notes
Storage: Cooked fish will keep well in the fridge, covered, for 3 days.
