Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Press sauté.

  3. Drain the fat and return to inner pot.

  4. Stir in onion.

  5. Cook, stirring regularly, until onion has softened, about 2 minutes.

  6. Add the pasta to the inner pot and pour the chicken broth over the top.

  7. Put the lid on and lock it in place.

  8. Move the pressure release valve to sealing.

  9. Press manual high pressure and adjust the time to 3 minutes.

  10. When the cooking time has finished, turn the pressure release valve to venting.

Patricia ★ 5.0/5

I cut this recipe in half and it was terrific!

Kim ★ 5.0/5

I made this as my first recipe for my new Instant Pot Rio Wide. We thought it was really good as a simple staple, my husband loves anything with burger in it and cheese just makes things better! I have to admit that I was surprised how easy and it actually worked, LOL. I even used whole grain macaroni, timing was on point. I will make again on those busy nights. Good base recipe, too, if you wanted to give it some add-ins.
