Pasta Carbonara - Instant Pot

By lindaauman

Ingredients

• 4 slices thick bacon, chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, chopped
• 2 small onions, chopped
• 8 oz spaghetti or fettuccini, broken in half
• 1 cup heavy cream*
• 2 eggs
• 4 cups chicken broth
• 4 oz parm cheese
• 1 cup frozen peas, thawed
• 2 chicken breasts, cooked and chopped (I use rotisserie chicken)

Preparation

Step 1

Place your IP on sauté; chop bacon into little pieces and cook in the IP until golden brown. Remove bacon from the IP and set aside. Leave enough bacon drippings to sauté the onion and garlic.

Place onion and garlic in IP and cook until garlic and onion soften.

Add uncooked pasta and chicken broth, cook on manual high pressure for 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, whisk together the cheese and eggs. Do a quick release; stir in egg mixture, heavy cream, chicken, bacon and peas.

Continue to stir until pasta is well coated.
