Direction
Gather all ingredients.
Pour cold water and lemon juice into a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot). Place a steamer rack inside; coat with cooking spray.
Place frozen salmon fillets, skin-side down, on the prepared rack. Cover and close the vent.
Cook on the Steam setting until fish flakes easily with a fork, 3 to 4 minutes. Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
Check salmon for desired doneness. Season with salt and pepper. Cover the pot to keep salmon warm until serving.
