Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs (900 g / 31.7 oz) trout fillets, cut into 2-inch chunks
  • 1 lb (450 g) shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 2 large onions, finely chopped
  • ¼ cup (60 ml / 2 fl oz) extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 cup (150 g / 5.3 oz) cauliflower, chopped into small florets
  • ¼ cup (15 g / 0.53 oz) fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 4 cups (950 ml) fish stock
  • 1 tsp (5 ml) sea salt
  • ½ tsp dried thyme
  • Fresh lemon juice, for serving (optional)
  • for Success
  • For a spicy kick, add ¼ teaspoon of red pepper flakes along with the onions and garlic at the beginning of the recipe.
  • This stew is fantastic on its own, but for a more substantial meal, serve it over cauliflower rice or with a side of crusty bread to soak up the savory broth.

Method
 

  1. Directions
  2. Set your Instant Pot to the 'Sauté' function and add three tablespoons of olive oil.
  3. Once hot, add the chopped onions and crushed garlic, sautéing for 3-4 minutes until soft and translucent.
  4. Add the shrimp and continue to cook, stirring for another 2-3 minutes until they just turn pink. Press 'Cancel' to stop the sauté function.
  5. Pour in the fish stock and gently add the trout fillets, cauliflower, parsley, sea salt, and dried thyme.
  6. Do not stir vigorously to keep the fish intact.
  7. Secure the lid and set the steam release handle to the 'Sealing' position. Select the 'Manual' or 'Pressure Cook' button and set the timer for 10 minutes.
  8. Once the timer finishes, allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes before carefully moving the handle to 'Venting' to release any remaining steam.
  9. Open the lid, give the stew a gentle stir, and serve immediately. A squeeze of fresh lemon juice just before serving brightens all the flavors.
  10. Cut the trout into large, 2-inch chunks. This helps prevent the delicate fish from breaking apart completely during the pressure cooking cycle.
