This Instant Pot Chicken Alfredo Pasta is an easy, one pot meal that cooks in record time! It’s creamy, comforting and hearty!

Hey everyone! It’s Ashley here from The Recipe Rebel back with another Instant Pot recipe, because September is crazy enough without us having to worry about getting a good meal on the table in between after school activities, lessons and sports!

I was a little nervous about making pasta in my Instant Pot for the first time, because I thought it would either all clump together (how could it not when there’s no stirring??), or be totally mushy and overcooked.

But somehow, it just works. And it works so well, especially when you have your hands full with littles or other things because once you close the lid and set the cook time, it’s totally hands off. You can’t fuss over it even if you wanted to!

Flavorful chicken breasts, garlic, penne, real cream and real parmesan cheese, and the best part is it all cooks together in the Instant Pot.

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 2 large chicken breasts about 1.5 pounds total
• 4 cloves of garlic minced
• 1 quart low sodium chicken broth

1. Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper and garlic powder.
