Ingredients
- 8 oz (230g) linguine I used Barilla brand
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 2 1/4 cups chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon salt or to taste
- 3 dashes ground black pepper
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese plus more for topping
- 1 tablespoon chopped Italian parsley
Instructions
- Break the linguine pasta in half.
- Set the Instant Pot to Sauté mode and add the olive oil. When the oil is fully heated, sauté the garlic for 10 seconds. Then add the chicken broth, garlic powder, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and linguine.
- IMPORTANT: Stir the linguine to ensure it is coated in the liquid and not sticking to the sides of the Instant Pot.
- Cover the pot, select Manual, and set it to High Pressure for 8 minutes. When it beeps, perform a Quick Release.
- When the valve drops, carefully remove the cover and stir the pasta. Add the heavy whipping cream, Parmesan cheese, and chopped parsley. If the sauce is too runny, turn on Sauté mode to reduce it for about 1 minute. Serve immediately, topping with extra Parmesan cheese and/or lemon wedges if desired.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- I used a 6-quart Instant Pot. You may double the recipe but still cook for 8 minutes on high pressure. If you use spaghetti, cook for 6 minutes on high pressure.
- If you want it to be more saucy, use 2 cups chicken broth
- If you don’t have an Instant Pot, you can make this Creamy Garlic Parmesan Pasta on a skillet using your stove top. You may refer to my Skillet Creamy Garlic Parmesan Fettucine recipe.
