Ingredients

1 tbsp butter
2 tbsp garlic minced
1/2 onion sliced
2 c vegetable broth
1 1/4 tsp Old Bay more if you want to sprinkle some on top when done
1 lemon juiced
1 tsp salt
1 lb baby red potatoes
1 lb sausage kielbasa, sliced
3 ears corn on the cob cut into thirds
1 lb shrimp frozen with shells on

Instructions

Put pressure cooker on saute, then add butter so it melts. Add onion and garlic and saute for a few minutes.
In a bowl combine broth and 1/4 tsp of Old Bay, set aside. Add remaining Old Bay into your pot with butter, then add salt. Mix.
Pour in broth and lemon juiced. Stir to combine. Turn pot off.
Now arrange the potatoes in the pot into the broth, then layer the corn pieces on to of those.
Place sliced sausage pieces on top of the corn. Can sprinkle a bit more Old Bay in now if you'd like.
Close the lid and set to pressure cook high for 4 minutes, then do a quick release.
Put frozen shrimp into the pot on top of other ingredients. Close the lid and set to pressure cook high for 1 minute followed by a quick release.
Serve everything on a large baking sheet with a bit of the broth poured on top. Put a small bowl of melted butter with a sprinkle of Old Bay on the side, and slices of lemon on the tray.
