Instant Pot Fresh Steamed Oysters with Spicy Butter

Instant Pot Fresh Steamed Oysters with Spicy Butter

This steamed oysters recipe makes the shellfish easy to open up and tender without any rubbery texture. I’ve made baked, grilled, steamed oysters on the stovetop, and even air-fried oysters, but steaming in the Instant Pot is hands down the best method.
