Instructions
- Add olive oil to the Instant Pot. Using the display panel select the SAUTÉ function. Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
- When oil gets hot, brown the chicken on both sides, 3-4 minutes per side. Meat will not be cooked through. Do not crowd the pot--you may have to work in batches. Transfer browned meat to a shallow dish and cover loosely with foil.
- Add butter to the Instant Pot. When butter is melted, add garlic and cook for 1 minute or until it just begins to brown.
- Mix in cream, broth, salt and nutmeg and deglaze by using a wooden spoon to scrape the brown bits from the bottom of the pot.
- Add (broken in half) noodles, ensuring all noodles are submerged. Nestle chicken breasts in sauce in an even layer, turning once to coat.
- Turn the pot off by selecting CANCEL, then secure the lid, making sure the vent is closed.
- Using the display panel select the MANUAL function*. Use the +/- keys and program the Instant Pot for 10 minutes.
- When the time is up, let the pressure naturally release for 10 minutes, then quick-release the remaining pressure.
- Turn the pot off by selecting CANCEL. Carefully remove the chicken to a cutting board and slice into bite-sized pieces.
- Return chicken to the pot, stir in parmesan cheese and serve immediately, garnished with basil.

The noodles burn and stick to the bottom of the pot causing the cooker to show the “burn” error message and stop cooking…
Righr as it got to pressure, got the burn message.
Pastas was not done. I will use angel hair pasta not time.
I varied the seasonings ,it turned out great
Very good ,changed seasonings s bit, boiled pasta before adding,turned out great
Recipe looks great, but as others have commented the pasta gets burned easily. We had to take everything out and cook it on the stove.
Great taste! I didn’t experience any problem with burning or uncooked noodles. I used thin spaghetti and throughly deglazed after browning chicken and minced garlic. I used Wifi InstantPot and let it set pot per recipe.
Good flavor, but kinda dry. Noodles soaked up all the alfredo. Chicken was very juicy and delicious.
I made this using thin spaghetti and it turned out very tasty! Cooked just right! 🙂
This meal turned out great.
Great. Was a family pleaser
Had good flavor but noodles not quite right sauce too thick would thin out next time
It turned out very good! Had to cook a couple minutes longer, but i will definitely be making this again!
Delicious!
Any recipe that calls for pasta I cook on the stove.I like unbroken noodles (spaghetti) and you have more control over the texture.And it doesn’t really add any more time to overall cook time
I thought this was great. Only I used penne pasta instead of the regular noodles. They just hold up better.
Tasted great but sauce was very thin. I thickened by adding more shredded parmesan.
Tip: use chicken tenders and chop before you brown in pot. Add spinach instead of basil
Delicious!! I added 1/2 pound of bacon and used penne noodles instead.
Good flavor but sauce could be a little thicker. Overall good though.
So good. I added sun dried tomatoes and it was a huge hit
Followed the instructions to the letter… it turned out perfectly and is delicious!
I usually create a rue on the stove but thought I woukd try this instead. It was watery and the noodles didnt cook all the way.
This was my first insta disaster. Kept telling me it was burning. I added 2 more cups of broth. Finally I just checked the internal temperature of the chicken and it was done. I wont be making this again. I couldnt even get the kid to eat it and he eats anything.
Came out a bit watery so next time ill add a little corn starch to thicken.
Excellent flavor, very creamy.
Followed the instructions exactly, the food burned. I was so bummed as were my kids. The contents were inedible 🙁
I have great kids though; they said, “that’s ok mommy, let’s have that leftover chili you made in that pot!!”
Love my twin 6 year old boys 🙂
Needs more liquid, and the noodles needed 15 minutes instead of 10. But after my adjustments, it tasted just like Olive Garden. Pleased overall
Made this for my family of 7 and it was GONE! Everyone went back for 3rd helpings! I made it with spaghetti instead of fettuccini because its all I had in the pantry. Now every time I make this I immediately add the ingredients back to my grocery list because its a weekly meal. Perfect!
Very good!
This was delicious!! A big hit with the family and ill be making it again. I followed the recipe exactly!
Great meal, BUT the recipe calls to put the cream in BEFORE you seal the yop and cook for 10 minutes. The cream kinda separated. Next time I’ll add the cream when I add the cheese.
My family loved it!! The chicken was amazing and the noodles perfect! I didnt use garlic in my receipe i just went from adding olive oil to brown chicken
Family loved this one! Turned out perfect! I added more cheese than it called for…but lets be real…everything is better with more cheese!
10/10!
Amazing!
SO good and easy! My new favorite go-to for fast family dinner.
Cream separated, noodles needed more time, and after 15 minutes, the sauce was still runny. Wasted some groceries. Won’t use this one again.
So good and fairly easy to make.
Barillo fettuccine noodles are the best to use.
Very creamy and filling with a side of Italian bread.
Not sure what other people did to get “inedible,” “waste of groceries,” and “watery sauce” but this recipe came out creamy, rich, and delicious! First time ever making Fettucine alfredo and it is now added to the weekly menu!!
I made this and it was outstanding. My husband never goes for seconds on alfredo, but he did with this one
Came out fantastic on the first try. Used thighs instead of breasts but it cane out great.
Amazing! Third time making this and have to say The third time was the charm lol. The first and Second time it displayed burning and on the third around of making it came out just right.
Can I use frozen chicken breasts?
This turned out great! There is a bit too much chicken for the amount of pasta in my opinion, so I will make sure to adjust next time.
If you’re having issues with the sauce being runny, let it sit for a few minutes after cooking and it should thicken up.
This was an amazing recipe – my family loved it and were surprised that this can be made in an instant pot if we’re in a time crunch. For those who are saying that the sauce separated – just add more cream/milk. problem solved. 😉 I personally added more chicken for those with big appetites here at the house. I’d totally use this again if I’m in a time crunch or whatevs. Manythanks!
Second rime making it, the first was better as we didn’t follow the directions. Turned out delicious.
Second time, followed directions to the tee, and now I want someone to come clean my instant pot. It burned, noodles weren’t done, not even aldente, and the chicken was overdone, there wasn’t an alfredo flavor. We’ve removed it to the stove to hopefully recover what could have been an easy dinner.
IF we make this again in the Instant Pot, it will be with our own recipe or another!!!
