Trying to eat more salmon? It helps if it can be ready in minutes! Salmon is a great source of omega-3 fats, which help fight inflammation and benefit your skin, memory, vision, immunity, and cardiovascular health.
Yield 2 servings • Prep time 3 minutes • Cook time 5 minutes
2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
½ tsp kosher salt
1 tsp olive oil, plus more to serve
2 (5oz) pieces skinless frozen salmon
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp maple syrup
2 slices lemon
8 oz baby arugula
Freshly squeezed lemon juice, to serve
1. Place the sweet potato in the bottom of the inner pot. Add ½ cup water, salt and olive oil and mix gently.
2. Spray a wire rack with cooking spray and place inside the pot on top of the sweet potatoes. Place the salmon on the rack.
3. In a small bowl, mix the mustard and maple syrup. Brush the mustard mixture on the salmon and top each piece with a lemon slice.
4. Cover and lock the lid. Place the vent in the sealing position. Set to Pressure Cook (high) for 5 minutes. When the cook time is up, quick release the pressure and remove the lid.
5. Remove the salmon and the rack and mash the sweet potatoes with a fork.
6. To serve, arrange a bed of arugula on a plate, drizzle with additional olive oil, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, and a sprinkle of sea salt. Top with mashed sweet potato and salmon.
TIP If you have fresh salmon on hand, cut down the cook time by 2 minutes and cut the sweet potatoes a little bit smaller to ensure even and complete cooking.
