INSTANT POT CREAMY RANCH CHICKEN PASTA



Instant Pot Creamy Ranch Chicken Pasta image

The internet loves this ready-in-a-hurry dish but too many versions are overly soupy or have curdled sauces. Our version uses chicken thighs because they stay moist and tender; we stir them into the cheese mixture after it is cooked to create a creamy, tangy mixture that is perfect over pasta.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 8 ounces)
One 1-ounce package ranch-dressing seasoning mix
1 pound penne pasta
4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
2 tablespoons sour cream, at room temperature
1/4 cup sharp yellow Cheddar, shredded

Steps:

  • Pat the chicken thighs dry with a paper towel and sprinkle all over with 1 tablespoon of the seasoning mix.
  • Add the penne to the 6-quart Instant Pot® and add 4 cups water to the pot. Place the chicken thighs on top of the penne. Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 8 minutes (see Cook's Note). After the pressure-cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for quick- release and wait until the quick-release cycle is complete. Being careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board until cool enough to handle.
  • Meanwhile, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, Cheddar and remaining seasoning mix (about 2 tablespoons) in a large bowl. Set aside.
  • Roughly chop the chicken into small pieces while it is still warm. Add the chicken to the cream-cheese mixture and stir to combine. Add the chicken and cheese mixture to the pasta and stir until the cheese mixture melts and the pasta is well coated.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling around during the cooking process.
  • Cook the Chicken Thoroughly: Chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) to ensure that it is safe to eat. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken before serving.
  • Use Fresh Herbs and Spices: Fresh herbs and spices add a lot of flavor to this dish. If you can, use fresh herbs like parsley, thyme, and rosemary. You can also use dried herbs and spices, but they will not be as flavorful.
  • Don't Overcook the Noodles: Noodles should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked noodles will be mushy and unpleasant to eat.
  • Serve Immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is cooked. The noodles will start to absorb the sauce and become soggy if it is allowed to sit for too long.

Conclusion:

This creamy ranch chicken with noodles is a quick and easy dish that is perfect for a busy weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. The creamy ranch sauce is flavorful and comforting, and it pairs perfectly with the tender chicken and noodles. Serve this dish with a side salad or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
