 Hey guys welcome back to Six Sister Stuff today we're making instant pot chicken alfredo pasta. So my name is Kristen and I'm Kendra and a little bit about this dish we love it because everything cooks in your instant pot you're going to be cooking your chicken in here your pasta and everything just mixes together makes it really easy and the flavor is amazing. Nice I love it all right so before we get started on everything we want to tell you a little bit about our shirts I'm sure you've seen them but this is our first one of I'm the seventh sister shirt so they make them we have some that are small and then we also have some that are bigger so and then mine of course is ceiling not venting because that's kind of my thing so anyway if you want to check out these shirts you can find them down below in the description or there's a little bar that goes across that shows all the shirt options for you so anyways Kate well if you guys are ready let's get cooking all right so to get started you're gonna push the sauté button and we're gonna let that heat up to hot yes okay so you'll just want to add about two tablespoons of olive oil to the bottom of your instant pot now can I show you my trick yes I like to pick it up and kind of just like make sure it covers exactly no sticking no burning here today no not today all right then we're gonna add this is about three pounds of chicken now you can see that we've kind of cut it into strips just it will make it cook so much faster if it's cut smaller and I'd like this I like the strips with alfredo right that's what you think of when you think of alfredo so and I like doing it beforehand because then after it's like you're trying to shred hot chicken and it's like right once this is cooked it's just nice just nice and easy and done exactly you can hear sizzle sizzle sizzle so how long do you sauté the chicken for so you're gonna do like three minutes on each side okay I'm trying to spread them out it's best I can you're doing great thanks almost done here here we go last oh last two here we go okay so we'll give them just a second let them sit there and then we'll just flip them over in about two to three minutes so then just to season them up a little we're just gonna do a little salt and pepper just for taste no direct measurement and you know us we usually just kind of eyeball things that's how it works here okay they've been browned on both sides for about three minutes we're just gonna kind of stir them stir them up a little bit there we go okay now we're gonna cook the pasta so let's add some of our stuff here okay so we're gonna add one teaspoon of minced garlic nice okay then we'll add one teaspoon of parsley into this nice mix that around now I'm gonna hurry and turn off the sauté button if that's okay oh it smells good just with the garlic in there okay then let's add our pasta on top and then we'll add on the broth so we're gonna add just like one pound of the pasta and then the sear of the pasta is we're just going to make sure that all the pasta is covered with liquid so right now this is four cups of chicken broth that we're gonna put in here looks like we just need to add yeah you want to measure that a little bit you might need to add just a little bit more when your pasta is not touching the liquid it's gonna get hard and crispy yeah we don't want that we want we want soft pasta no pasta okay how's that looking can we pat the rest down perfect I think we're ready now okay ready ready let's do it you're gonna put on your lid now if you have a little knob make sure that it's turned to ceiling not venting this one doesn't have a knob so it automatically just sets onto ceiling so you're good so you're gonna push the pressure cook button or the manual button and then we're gonna go down to four minutes because our chicken's pretty much cooked we just gotta cook the noodles and we're ready to go so once it's set you can go ahead and walk away all right so once the timer is all done you can go ahead and either turn your little knob to venting or with this instant pot all you have to do is press the button now so ready here we go okay once the pressure is out you can go ahead and safely take off the lid it does smell good it's gonna mix it around it looks like there's like a little bit excess water yeah but not too much I feel like we're okay to just leave it as it is so okay now we're gonna add the good stuff we're gonna make the sauce yes to us we're going to add cream cheese and it's okay if it's still a little cold because they will all melt together with the hot pasta and the chicken right and so that's like that's the eight ounce block of cream cheese okay while you're gonna do that I'm gonna put in like a fourth cup of parmesan nice do I mix it around and you put in the next awesome and then this is just one cup of mozzarella nice love all this cheese I mean Alfredo I guess it does all cheese all good stuff now if you wanted to cook a little bit faster you can push the saute button and we'll keep things up a little bit more okay this will take just a few minutes to melt all our cheeses and cream cheese and everything so you just keep at it keep at it so while we're waiting for it to you know melt thicken up a little bit to help thicken it up we're gonna take two tablespoons of water and then just one tablespoon it's a half we need two of them so one tablespoon of cornstarch and we're just going to mix it up a little bit and then put it in there while it's on saute to hope it will it will thicken it right up for us because you don't want liquidy chicken alfredo you we want thick creamy chicken alfredo there we go all right so we're just going to stir this for a little bit until it's nice and thick okay so everything is stirred together it's creamy it's thickening up so it's gonna yeah turn this off turn off our sauté off there we go and then we're just gonna serve this up and we like to serve this with just a little bit of basil on top it just adds a really nice fresh flavor to it all you'd also put a little bit more parmesan on top too that's one of my favorites never opposed to more cheese never opposed to that especially with dealing with alfredo and there it is your finished product all right guys thanks so much for watching today now if you want more simple and
