Instant Pot Creamy Chicken Spaghetti
Instant Pot Creamy Chicken Spaghetti
4 cups chicken broth
1 lb (16 oz) dry spaghetti noodles
6 chicken tenders
salt and pepper to taste
1 onion, diced (approx 1 cup)
2 bell peppers, diced (approx 1 1/2 cups)
2 tsp dried minced garlic
8 ounces cream cheese
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Pour the chicken broth into the Instant Pot Break the spaghetti noodles in half and place in the chicken broth alternating the direction the noodles are laying. Set the chicken tenders on top of the pasta. Season with salt and pepper. Add the onion, bell peppers and minced garlic on top of the chicken. Cook on manual HIGH for 3 minutes, NPR 6 minutes before quick releasing the remaining pressure.
Remove the cooked chicken from the pot. Give the pot a good stir. Cut the 8 ounces of cream cheese into cubes. Add the cream cheese cubes to the Instant Pot and replace the lid. Let it sit for 10 minutes.
While the Instant Pot is resting, slice, dice or shred the chicken. Add the chicken to the Instant Pot once the 10 minutes rest period is over. Stir to incorporate the cream cheese. Stir in the shredded cheese and serve! Notes: If you like your spaghetti a bit ‘saucier’ you can add in a splash of milk.
