Instant Pot Salmon with Red Potatoes and Spinach

There’s not much better than being able to cook your entire dinner in one pot. The amazing Instant Pot® makes that possible, and this salmon dinner might just become a new family favorite. The garlicky potatoes and greens are full of tremendous flavor and are two anti-inflammatory superstars!

• Hands-On Time: 10 minutes
• Cook Time: 7 minutes

Serves 4

One pound small red potatoes, quartered
1 cup water
1 & 1⁄4 teaspoons salt, divided
3⁄4 teaspoon black pepper, divided
4 (5-ounce) salmon filets
1⁄4 teaspoon sweet paprika
1⁄2 teaspoon lemon zest
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons avocado oil
4 cups packed baby spinach
4 lemon wedges

To make the Instant Pot Salmon with Red Potatoes and Spinach:

1 Place the potatoes in the inner pot and add one cup water, 1⁄4 teaspoon salt, and 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper. Place a steam rack on top of the potatoes.

2 On top of the salmon add the paprika, lemon zest, 1⁄2 teaspoon salt, and 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper and place the salmon on top of the steam rack. Secure the lid.

3 Press the Manual or Pressure Cook button and adjust the time to 3 minutes.

4 When the timer beeps, let pressure release naturally until float valve drops and then unlock lid.

5 Remove the salmon and steam rack from the pot and set aside.

6 Press the Sauté button and cook the potatoes 1 minute. Add the garlic and cook an additional 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Stir in the oil and the remaining salt and pepper. Use a fork to gently mash the potatoes to achieve a chunky texture. Press the Cancel button.

7 Add the spinach and stir until wilted, about 1–2 minutes. Serve the salmon and potato and spinach mixture with the lemon wedges.
