A delicious Instant Pot dinner made in under 30 minutes (including prep and time to reach pressure)! My family likes to eat this light and buttery shrimp with linguini, but you can skip the pasta and make this a delicious low-carb or keto meal with vegetables on the side. Garnish with additional green onions.

Pour in sherry and scrape the bottom of the pot to loosen any browned bits. Allow sherry to cook for 3 minutes, then push Cancel. Stir in the chicken broth, soy sauce, and pepper. Add shrimp to the pot.
Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer’s instructions; set timer for 1 minute. Allow 5 to 10 minutes for pressure to build.
