This amazing, cheesy pasta is a spin off our a similar Skillet meal…just made in the Instant Pot!

In addition to lots of Greek food being made in my kitchen, there’s been a LOT of Instant Pot pastas too. Because so easy. So hands off. And absolutely no water boiling over will happen on your stovetop!

• Instant Pot One-Pot Spaghetti
• Instant Pot Taco Pasta
• And more to come 😉

So, with this one, I thought I’d give you the play by play…

Here’s the “loading order” for this meal. I’m using my 8-Qt. Instant Pot – which one is best for you?! Find out here.

First, olive oil drizzled into the base.

Then, the cut up chicken.

Then, the pasta.

Then, the sun-dried tomatoes.

Then, the creamy sauce.

Press the pasta into the sauce, so it’s all/mostly “underwater.”

Put the lid on and cook.

Please note the pressure cooking time. It’s 2 minutes longer than my other Instant Pot pasta recipes, because the raw chicken needs an extra minute to cook through.

This is just after opening it. It will be saucy.

Give it a good stir…

And then…

Add the Parmesan and shredded cheeses.

Stir it all through and let the cheese melt.

Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Serve.

Enjoy!!
