Instructions
- Add bacon to the Instant Pot. Using the display panel select the SAUTE function and adjust to HIGH or MORE.
- Cook and stir bacon until most of the fat is rendered, then add chicken and brown lightly on both sides, 2-3 minutes. Meat may not be cooked through.
- Remove chicken and bacon to a plate, reserving drippings.
- Add broth to the pot and deglaze by using a wooden spoon to scrape the brown bits from the bottom of the pot.
- Add ranch powder, garlic powder and chicken to the pot. Stir to combine, then add pasta to the pot and make sure it is submerged.
- Turn the pot off by selecting CANCEL, then secure the lid, making sure the vent is closed.
- Using the display panel select the MANUAL or PRESSURE COOK function*. Use the +/- keys and program the Instant Pot for 5 minutes.
- When the time is up, let the pressure naturally release for 5 minutes, then quick-release the remaining pressure.
- Stir in the cheeses a little at a time until melted. Add half and half and reserved bacon. Mix well and serve.

This was super yummy!
excited to try this. we will report back.
My very picky son loves this dish. Very kid friendly and tasty.
My 4 year old has a tough time eating meat and she loved this. Super easy. Very delicous!
The whole family loved this recipe, including my super picky youngest! This was my first try w the IP and I was torally wowed by how fast, easy, and delicious it was!
So easy and fast! My very picky eater loved it.
Very easy and delicious, makes a large portion
Really good!!! Came out a little more watery than I expected but otherwise delicious!
I made this as it looked really good. Taste delicious bit could use little of the chicken brother. Maybe about a 3/4 cup.
So easy and the while family loved it!
Noodles were perfect too
It was pretty easy to make. I used leftover roasted turkey I had available, the 4 cheese mexican blend.
Since it had extra meat in it I lessened my rotini to make sure the broth covered everything.
Will make again.
Pasta was way over cooked at 5 minutes. Will try again at 2 min
Turned out watery. Followed directions to the tee but it came out like pasta soup
Hi KMugford,
We are sorry to hear it did not turn out for you.
Depending on the pasta used, it may not have absorbed the same amount of liquid.
Can I use chicken thighs instead of breasts?
My whole family really enjoyed this meal! Even my picky 7 year old requested the left overs for lunch the next day!!
Probably would have used less than a packet of ranch dressing mix it was a bit strong for me, but super good!
It was very easy and tssted good.
I would let sit for a little bit to let the noodles soak more broth up.
But outher than that ot was fantastic.
Super easy. A little rich. Went 3-3/4 cups broth and didn’t change anything else. Went 7 minute pressure cook and had amazing consistency. I also recommend sauteeing the leftover bacon in a small pan as well. Gets a but crispier which adds great texture. Overall. Very good. Will make again.
Super high in sodium. Thats my own fault for not using low sodium broth. Do better than me. The dish tasted great though.
The liquid wasnt fully absorbed. Added 4 more pressured minutes. All gone before adding cheese and 1/2 &1/2
Do I use uncooked noodles for this recipe?
Hi Joseeboyer,
The recipe calls for uncooked pasta.
If the recipe calls for a precooked item, it will say precooked beside the ingredients.
After following the directions, there was still a lot of broth left so I think that broth should be dropped dramatically probably by half.
Made this tonight for dinner. My husband is picky, but loves this! I added two minutes to the time.
Delicious- but NOT easy.
Just bought an instant pot and this was the first recipe…it was great!
I suggest less broth. Anyone know where to find nutrition facts for this?
Making this tonight and just a little confused about if I should be using low or high pressure? The other recipe I tried told me low pressure.
Why is this listed as a dessert!?
Its a win! Great pasta dish! Also if you go to the recipe on the website it has a button to add all of the ingredients to your walmart shopping app. Awesome! (Could we have that as a feature on the app)
This was very tasty. I only gave it 4 stars because of the directions. The cooking of the bacon needs clarification. You get all the way to the end and it tells you to add back reserved bacon. I suggest crisping bacon then remove to a plate. THEN cook the chicken in the bacon drippings. Do not cook them together as in the recipe. Once they are sauteed it is hard to separate the pieces of chicken and bacon. I also added a little more liquid as I have an 8 quart. I’ll make again with change
Countrygirl – I don’t know for sure, but I am under the assumption that unless it says to use low pressure that you should use high pressure. I had the same question on other recipes and did some research and that is the conclusion that I came to.
More liquidy than I expected. Tasted great, though.
Directions were misleading as it wasnt until then end it says at back the bacon.
Seems a little too watery
It was really soupy at the end. Calls for way to much broth and because of that it doesn’t have a real ranch flavor.
However, add 2 cups of cheese for each cheese needed and it tasted delicious.
This was the first meal I made in my new Instantpot. It was fabulous. Followed the recipe to the tee and it turned out perfect.
It was too runny…good flavor though. I may try less liquid like some of the other reviewers said.
Family pleaser!!
Delicious!!
My first dish made in my insta pot. Was wonderful. Kids loved it. I added 2 cups of each cheese though.
Did the recipe exactly how it calls and it turned into a giant watery soup. How does one regain some of the creamy-ness and make this less soupy??
Was soupy. Will reduce broth next time. Other than that, it was good.
I made this for dinner tonight and it was so tasty! After reading the reviews, I decided to cut back on the broth…I did 4 cups instead of 4 1\2, I also used chicken thigh instead of chicken breast.
Yum! Added res pepper flakes
Flavor is fantastic. I added extra cheese. I reduced the broth to 3 cups
Didnt taste the ranch very much and came out quite soupy. drained the liquid and then put it in saute to mix the cheese in. Did taste very good. First time using my instant pot.
In order to submerge pasta I had to add extra chicken broth. I cooked it 6 minutes instead of 5. When I did the quick release the broth came out of the spout. The pasta needed to rest at least 15 minutes after releasing all the pressure as it was very soupy. I don’t know why I was instructed to set bacon grease aside as you never use it afterwards. The dish was very tasty.
Made this for dinner tonight and it was very tasty. After reading some reviews, I cut the broth back to 3 1/2 cups just barely covering the pene pasta i used. Cut cooking time to 4 minutes, with 5 minute natural release. Used up some partial bags of shredded cheeses I had on hand. Would make this again perhaps adding some sautéed onions and mushrooms and peas.
Wow this was good! Reheated leftovers for lunch next day & still soooo yummy.
