Add the shrimp in Instant Pot, and make sure all the shrimp are directly touching the pot. You don't have to stir the shrimp. Let the shrimp cook for 2 minutes on one side before flipping them over, then cook the other side for 1.5 minutes. *Cooking Time: If your shrimp are bigger or smaller than 26/30, increase or decrease your cooking time according to the size of your shrimp.
3. Add Garlic & Soy Sauce: Add minced garlic and 2 tsp (10ml) - 1 tbsp (15ml) regular soy sauce in Instant Pot. With a wooden spoon, saute and scrub all the flavorful brown bits off the bottom. Do this for 30 seconds, then we're done!
4. Taste, Garnish, & Serve Shrimp: Taste one of the shrimp to make sure it's seasoned & cooked properly. Quickly pour them on a serving plate to avoid overcooking the shrimp. Garnish shrimp with finely chopped Italian parsley. Enjoy!
