Step 1

Make Sauce: Stir all sauce ingredients together with spoon in small bowl until well-mixed. Set aside at room temperature to let flavors develop while you prepare salmon.

Step 2

Prepare Salmon: Pour water into pressure cooker pot and place steam rack within (Note 5). Optionally, spray rack with nonstick oil spray (Note 6). Place salmon fillets side-by-side on top of rack; if skin-on, place them skin side facing down. Evenly season tops of fillets with salt and pepper.

Step 3

Cook Salmon (Note 7): Secure and seal lid to pressure cooker. Select steam mode at high pressure. For fresh salmon, set cooking time to 3 minutes. For frozen salmon, set cooking time to 8 minutes. After pressure cooking (as soon as timer beeps), perform quick pressure release to avoid overcooking fish.

Step 4

Serve (Note 8): Uncover pot, and use spatula and/or tongs to carefully transfer salmon to serving plates. Give chili lime sauce a quick stir, and spoon over salmon fillets. Serve immediately.
