    Check out my recipe to make Instant Pot Chicken, Spinach, and Artichoke Pasta using the pressure cook function!

    I absolutely love making pasta in my Instant Pot.  I really appreciate how all of the pasta comes out cooked evenly, absorbs the other flavors that are being cooked with it and how incredibly quick and easy it is.  As I continue to make more and more recipes, my thought process somehow always goes straight to pasta!  I just can't see to get enough of it!  My recipe for Instant Pot Chicken, Spinach and Artichoke Pasta is a combination of two of my favorite things; pasta and my Instant Pot Spinach Artichoke Dip recipe.

    This recipe was made using the Instant Pot Duo Crisp Pressure Cooker 11 in 1, 8 Qt with Air Fryer, Roast, Bake, Dehydrate and More

    Instant Pot Chicken, Spinach and Artichoke Pasta was a HUGE hit at our house!   It took some convincing, but my VERY picky 13 year old daughter actually tried it....and loved it.....and ate all of the leftovers the next day.  Considering that she will not eat spinach or artichokes....this was a big win!  I think it was all of the cheesy goodness that changed her mind.  Either way, don't take my word for it....give it a try!  It's absolutely delicious! 🙂

    Tips for making Instant Pot Chicken, Spinach and Artichoke Pasta:

    1. If liquid starts to come out when you release the pressure, don't panic.  It happened to me and I simply closed the valve and let some of the additional pressure naturally release on it's own.
    2. I recommend using fresh spinach but you can use frozen as well.  However, since frozen spinach has quite a bit of liquid in it, you will need to drain the spinach very well before adding to the recipe. 
    3. If you want to add an extra little kick of spice to the Instant Pot Chicken, Spinach and Artichoke Pasta, add additional pepper jack cheese or substitute it for either the parmesan or the mozzarella cheese.  My vote would be to just add more instead of substituting, but that's my own preference.  I just LOVE cheese!
