Sorry Olive Garden, we’re eating in tonight! This Chicken Scampi has a nice punch 
of garlic, a butter & white wine sauce and a melange of colorful bell peppers 
that make it a great meal perfect for a weeknight or even for guests! Here’s the recipe I 
made in the IP using only the SAUTE Mode – no pressure cooking required!

filling were made from scratch! Once made, you could saute or pressure steam in the IP.

We partied like it’s Mardi Gras with this IP version of Chicken & Shrimp Jambalaya!

shrimp, Andouille sausage and chicken. The dish is also naturally gluten free too!

Instant Pot: Chicken Philly Cheesesteaks

After some trial & error, I made these Chicken Philly Cheesesteaks 
which worked out best for us using only the SAUTE mode 
(no pressure cooking required!). It was a delicious twist to the original beef version!

Instant Pot: Beef & Green Bean Stir Fry
Instead of Chinese take out, we opted for Fake Out 
with this Beef & Green Bean stir fry in the IP! The only thing 
missing was the paper container to serve them in and there weren’t any leftovers!

Instant Pot: Old Bay Fish Tacos

Make fish fun with some Old Bay Fish Tacos! This version uses the 
IP’s steam function and steams the fish to lock in all that flavor.

Instant Pot: Stuffed Pork Chops

Just STUFF it! Well, pork chops, that is! I made a stuffing with blue cheese, 
roasted red peppers & spinach for my pork chops. It came out deliciously
and the extra step of brining the chops made them super tender too!

Instant Pot: Cilantro Pork Tamales

Tamales got me like whoa! The IP did an awesome job pressure cooking my pork filling & steaming these Cilantro Pork Tamales in a fraction of the time. Have yourself a tamale party and stock up!

Instant Pot: Thai Basil Chicken

With summer around the corner, lighten up your meals with 

some Thai Basil Chicken! It’s awesome over rice, a salad or 

eaten nestled in lettuce cups for something guilt-free & flavorful!

Instant Pot: Salmon & Spinach Pesto Pasta
It’s peak Alaskan salmon season, so get your salmon on! After spending some time in Alaska a few years ago to work on a culinary assignment, I fell more in love with salmon. This dish takes me back to the beauty of the Cordova, home of Alaska’s Copper River Salmon.
