Instant pot cod fish cooked from frozen in an electric pressure cooker in 2 minutes. No more waiting around to thaw your fish for dinner, with this recipe, you can have this quick and healthy dinner from the kitchen to your table under 10 minutes.

Ingredients

  • 200 g Frozen fish fillet cod (2 pieces) (haddock, mackerel, tilapia or salmon)
  • ½ teaspoon coarse sea salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper

Directions

  1. 1

    Rinse the fish under cold water to deglaze, this step is optional. If using more than 1 frozen fish, make sure the fish are separated and not clumped together.

  2. 2

    Place the trivet in the instant pot and add 1 cup of water. I used 6qt IP DUO, If you are using 8qt instant pot, use the minimum water required which is 2 cups.

  3. 3

    Add the frozen cod fish and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

  4. 4

    Cover the lid of your instant pot securely then turn the valve to the sealing position. Select manual or pressure cook and cook on high pressure for 2 minutes then carefully do a quick release.NOTE: If the thickness of your frozen cod fillet is more than ½ an inch, you can increase the cooking time to 3 or 4 minutes. 2 minutes has always worked for me, Alternatively, let the instant pot come to natural pressure for another 5 minutes after 2 minutes on high pressure

  5. 5

    Serve with lemon wedge, melted butter and chopped dill or parsley sauce
