Time 50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons salted butter
1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 medium onion, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 pound dry penne pasta
4 cups chicken stock
2 medium lemons, juiced
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
½ cup heavy whipping cream
¼ cup grated Romano cheese
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®), add butter, and select Saute function. When butter melts, add chicken and onion and saute until chicken is browned, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and saute for 1 minute more. Push Cancel to end Saute function.
  • Add dry pasta, chicken stock, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and garlic powder; stir with a wooden or plastic spoon, scraping the bottom of the pot to loosen any browned bits.
  • Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 5 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
  • Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
  • Stir in heavy cream, Romano and Parmesan cheeses. Let the pasta sit in the pot until the sauce is thickened, about 3 minutes.
