Step 1

Add olive oil to instant pot. Turn instant pot on to saute function. Season chicken with pepper, then place chicken in pan when the oil is hot. Brown chicken on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from Instant Pot and set aside until later.

Step 2

Add garlic to pot and cook for about 1 minute. Add water and deglaze the bottom of the pot, scraping off any browned bits from the bottom of the pot to avoid the burn message.

Step 3

Add chicken breast back to pot.

Step 4

Add noodles and sauce in layers to prevent sticking

Step 5

Place lid on Instant Pot making sure valve is turned to the sealed position. Then turn to high pressure for 12 minutes and let cook.

Step 6

When done cooking quick release pressure (I cover with a towel because the release valve can spray starchy water when cooking pasta). Let sit 4 minutes before taking lid off, for sauce to thicken.

Step 7

Remove chicken and stir pasta, chop chicken and place back into instant pot. Stir in Parmesan, serve and enjoy!
