Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon butter
½ cup chopped onion
1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes and green chiles (such as RO*TEL®)
2 (6 ounce) frozen chicken breasts
10 ounces spaghetti, broken in half
1 (10.5 ounce) can low-sodium cream of mushroom soup
1 (10.5 ounce) can low-sodium cream of chicken soup
½ cup milk
1 teaspoon taco seasoning mix
½ teaspoon chicken seasoning salt (such as Chook®)
nonstick cooking spray
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Add in butter and onion and saute for about 3 minutes. Pour in diced tomatoes with liquid; mix to combine. Add frozen chicken breasts. Cancel Saute mode.
  • Close and lock the lid. Select High pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 20 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. Remove chicken and cut into bite-sized pieces. Add chicken back into the pot. Scatter noodles on top so they don't clump up.
  • Mix mushroom soup, chicken soup, and milk together in a bowl. Pour over noodles. Close and lock the lid. Select High pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 7 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 taco seasoning and chicken seasoning salt.
  • Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Spray an 8x12-inch casserole dish with cooking spray.
  • Transfer 1/2 of the spaghetti mixture to the casserole dish and sprinkle with 1/2 cup cheese. Add remaining spaghetti mixture and sprinkle with remaining 1 1/2 cups cheese.
  • Broil in the preheated oven until the cheese is bubbling and golden, 3 to 5 minutes.

This was a great recipe! I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and it turned out great. The sauce was flavorful and the chicken was moist. I will definitely be making this again.
