Instant Pot Shrimp Alfredo

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup diced onions
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 pound frozen, cooked shrimp (tail off if you can find it)
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 box pasta (I used a box of regular size Farfell bowties)
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan
  • 2 Tbsp flour
  • 1 cup half & half
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

  • Set Instant Pot to saute. Saute onions in olive oil until lightly brown and leave in pot.
  • Add frozen shrimp, broth and uncooked pasta.
  • Cover and use manual setting at high pressure for 7 minutes.
  • Do a quick release to let steam out of Instant Pot.  This will prevent your pasta from overcooking and getting really soggy.
  • Put Instant Pot back into saute mode and add your half & half, cheese and flour.  Stir occasionally until sauce thickens.
  • At that point your pasta should be completely cooked and ready to serve!
