Instant Pot® Seafood Gumbo image

I took one of my favorite gumbo recipes and converted it to cook in the Instant Pot®. Chock-full of shrimp, scallops, and cod, it is cooked in a roux that incorporates Louisiana beer.

Time 1h10m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 tablespoons butter
2 stalks celery, finely chopped
1 onion, finely chopped
1 green bell pepper - stemmed, seeded, and finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
⅓ cup all-purpose flour, divided
2 ¼ cups chicken broth, divided
6 ounces beer (such as Abita Turbodog®)
1 ⅓ cups water
¾ cup uncooked white rice
½ pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
⅓ pound cod, cut into 1-inch pieces
⅓ pound scallops
2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 ½ teaspoons salt
¼ teaspoon dried thyme
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste

Steps:

  • Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Add butter, followed by celery, onion, bell pepper, and garlic. Cook and stir until vegetables are softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons flour over and stir to thoroughly coat.
  • Pour in 1 1/2 cups chicken broth while continuing to stir vegetables. Pour in beer. Set an elevated trivet on top of the mixture. Pour water and rice into a small silicone bowl and set on top of trivet. Cancel Saute mode. Seal and lock the lid into place.
  • Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 15 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
  • Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 10 to 40 minutes.
  • Switch to Saute function. Remove rice and trivet carefully. Add shrimp, cod, scallops, Cajun seasoning, Worcestershire, salt, thyme, and cayenne to the Instant Pot®.
  • Whisk remaining flour with remaining chicken broth in a small bowl. Pour into the pot and mix together. Stir frequently and allow to thicken and cook until shrimp are bright pink, cod is easily flaked with a fork, and scallops are opaque, 5 to 10 minutes. Serve with a scoop of rice.

I'm not a big fan of seafood, but I still enjoyed this gumbo. The broth was so flavorful and the vegetables were cooked perfectly.

I love the addition of okra to this gumbo. It gives it a nice slimy texture that I really enjoy.

I thought the gumbo was a little too salty for my taste. I would recommend using less salt next time.
