Paleo Instant Pot Garlic Herb Salmon and Sweet Potatoes and Greens
How to Make It
Step 1
Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Cut the sweet potatoes into a 1” dice. Keep the pieces around this size, or else they will not cook uniformly or within the cooking time listed here. Turn the Instant Pot on the Saute function. Wait until the pot says ‘HOT.’ Add the avocado oil and then the potatoes. Add in the water.
Step 2
Place the rack on top of the sweet potatoes. Place the fish on top. Season the fish on both sides with one teaspoon of salt, granulated garlic, and parsley. Place the lid on the pot and set the pressure on high for 5 minutes.
Step 3
Once the time has passed, do a quick release. Remove the salmon from the pot. Turn the Instant Pot onto the Saute setting again.
Step 4
Add the spinach to the potatoes and begin to mash the potatoes together with the spinach. Taste and season adding more salt as desired. Serve the mashed potatoes and greens with the cooked salmon.
