Everyone loved it!&nbsp;I love a good dump recipe. That sounds bad, but it’s really a good thing. It just means that you don’t need to do any prep to the ingredients. You just dump them all in the Instant Pot and cook. This recipe requires 9 ingredients, 6 of which go into the pot before cooking, and 3 to add at the end.I only buy pasture raised chicken and meats. I love Farm Foods Market online. They deliver hormone-free, non-GMO, antibiotic free chicken, plus all other types of meat, right to your door. You can order whatever you want, whenever you want – no membership or pre-selected box.For this recipe, we use the 6-quart Instant Pot Duo Plus, but you can use any electric pressure cooker.Now you can control your pot wirelessly through an app. Cool-touch handles on the pot itself, and an automatic locking pressure release valve for greater safety. This one does it all.Buy on AmazonCut the chicken into bite sized pieces, if they aren’t already cut. Add the chicken to the bottom of the Instant Pot. Top it with the dried pasta, pour on the salad dressing, black pepper, cream cheese and broth. There’s no need to stir. Just put it all in and you’re good to go.Secure the lid onto the Instant Pot and make sure the valve is sealed. Press the pressure cook, or manual, button and set the time for 8 minutes. It will take about 5 minutes to come up to pressure and start cooking.When time is up, let the steam naturally release for 5 minutes and then manually release the rest. You don’t want it to continue cooking past the 5 minute mark, so make sure you’re watching closely.Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes, parmesan cheese, and basil.&nbsp;Let it sit for about 5 minutes on Keep Warm, then stir it again. In this time, some of the liquid will be soaked up and the sauce will be set well.Garnish with more Parmesan cheese if you want. I also think a spritz of lemon juice gives a brightness to the sauce.The Instant Pot is one of the most useful kitchen appliances you can buy, because it drastically cuts down on the cooking time for developing flavors in soups and stews, getting tough cuts of meat tender, and even baking a cheesecake. And there are many accessories that will help you get more out of your Instant Pot.If you don’t have one yet, check out our guide on which one to buy. Also see our guide to How to Use an Instant Pot for more information.Although this pasta is great just as it is, there’s always more flavor combinations to be explored. These are some additional ingredients you could add.Allow the leftover chicken pasta to cool to room temperature before placing it in an airtight container and transfer to the refrigerator. It will be good for 3-5 days.If freezing to enjoy later, allow it to cool completely and place it in an airtight container. It will be good for 2 months.This instant pot olive garden chicken pasta is very versatile and pairs well with side dishes such as;Making chicken pasta in a slow cooker can be a convenient way to prepare a delicious and hearty meal. Here are a few easy stepsPlace the chicken breasts in the bottom of your crockpot.Add the sun-dried tomatoes, salad dressing, chicken broth, black pepper, and cream cheese on top of the chicken.Give everything a gentle stir.Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 4-6 hours or until the chicken is tender and easily shreds with a fork.Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the crockpot and shred it using two forks.Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Add it to the crockpot.Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and fresh basil leaves. ServeOnce you’ve started using your Instant Pot more regularly, you’ll find there are so many other ways you *could* be using it, if you had a few extra useful accessories. Here are a few favorites that we use almost every day.If you live in the United States, you can generally find this salad dressing in most grocery stores. It’s being sold everywhere now. You can get it at Costco, as well as on Amazon.If you can’t find it, you can make your own version with this recipe. You can also substitute it with regular Italian dressing or a Dijon vinaigrette, in a pinch.Yes, you can alter the recipe a bit to make it in the slow cooker. The process will be the same except you will add the pasta after the chicken sauce has cooked.Add all the ingredients to the slow cooker, as you would to the Instant Pot, except for the basil, Parmesan cheese, and pasta. Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 5-6 hours or on high for 4 hours until the chicken is cooked through. Then add the cooked pasta to the crockpot and stir.You can add cooked chicken instead of raw chicken, if that’s what you have on hand. The chicken will cook again in the Instant Pot, but it won’t become overly dry, so no need to worry. This is a good way to use up leftover chicken or to use a rotisserie chicken instead.The sauce will need a few minutes to thicken up after cooking. When you remove the lid, stir in the sun-dried tomatoes, basil, and parmesan and let the mixture set with the keep warm function for 5 minutes. The sauce will thicken as it sets.If you need to add a whole chicken breast, you might find that it doesn’t cook in the amount of time the dish is under pressure. It will only cook through if the breast is not super thick, and definitely it must be thawed entirely. A frozen chicken breast whole will not cook through in this time. If you increase the time to cook the chicken, you will overcook the pasta.from votesInstant Pot Whole Chickenfrom votesInstant Pot Pork &amp; Sauerkrautfrom votesInstant Pot Potato Leek Soupfrom votesInstant Pot Peach Iced TeaLike this recipe?

This recipe sounds amazing and definitely want to give it a try. I have a quick question about the nutrition information posted with it. I noticed it said 11g of carbs which I thought seemed super low for a pasta dish (I’m diabetic so I tend to watch my carb intake). I ran the recipe though My Fitness Pal and the macros are all much higher based on the listed 6 servings. I get 550 calories, 28g fat, 11g saturated fat, 60g carbs, 3g fiber, 6g sugar, and 63g of protein based on 6 servings. The only way I can get it close to the listed numbers for the macros is making it 12 servings instead of 6, but the ingredient amounts don’t really make sense for that many servings. I’m just curious if you would share what tool you use for calculating the nutrition information for your recipes so I can try to figure out where the difference lies. Thanks!August 26, 2022 at 8:29 amReplyRachelHey ma’am! What is the temperature for the insta pot when set on manual?
