Instant Pot® Shrimp Scampi Risotto Reviews

• I follow the recipe exact expect I didnt have Pinot Grigio (I dont drink wine & I forgot the recipe called for it...lol). But I added a mix of fresh squeezed lime & a little bit of water to replace the 1/4c. It definitely needed a little salt & pepper for my taste. I just added it to my plate & it was delicious. My husband said it made the cut. He loved it.
