Instant Pot Creamy Garlic Parmesan Chicken Pasta is a perfect weeknight meal with everything in one dish. It brings all the delicious flavors to the table.
When preparing Instant Pot Creamy Garlic Parmesan Chicken, I usually cut my chicken breasts into strips for easier cooking and shredding afterwards. You may use rotini pasta or other pasta you have on hand such as penne.
If you have been in the mood for a chicken dinner that is creamy and delicious that everyone will enjoy, this is perfect for you. Everything from the shredded chicken breast all the way to the seasonings and parmesan cheese that gives this dish so much flavor.
This dish is so simple, it is a dump and go and your meal is ready in about 30 minutes total time. I like to serve with a salad or a veggie of choice sometimes. Let’s get started!
What You Will Need To Make Creamy Garlic Chicken Pasta
- Pasta: What I love about this garlic chicken pasta recipe is you can use any kind of pasta that you like. I typically use rotini for this one if I have that on hand.
- Chicken breast: I typically use boneless skinless chicken breast or tenders; you could also use boneless skinless chicken thighs.
- Seasonings: Normally, I use a combination of garlic powder, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper to add more flavor to this dish.
- Butter: The butter helps cook the garlic and adds to the flavor, anyone that follows my page knows my love for Kerrygold.
- Heavy cream: The heavy cream gives this chicken pasta a creamy texture that is absolutely delicious.
- Parmesan cheese: You can’t really have an Italian dish without some Parmesan cheese. I typically use the shredded kind that you can put on top for melting.
