Garlic Parmesan Chicken Pasta
  1. Roast the garlic if you haven't already. Let it cool and squeeze the garlic cloves out into a small bowl.

  2. Trim and cube the chicken breasts into 1" pieces.

  3. Mince raw garlic, shred the parmesan cheese, and gather the remaining ingredients.

  4. Turn the Ninja Foodi or Instant Pot on high sear/sauté. Melt 2-4 Tablespoons of butter and add the chicken pieces and seasonings (except parsley). Stir and brown the chicken on one side.

  5. Flip the chicken and add in the minced garlic. Stir frequently and sauté for 2-3 minutes. If the garlic is browning too quickly, turn the heat down.

  6. Add in the pasta, roasted garlic and the chicken broth or stock. Scrape the bottom of the pot to make sure nothing is stuck. Add in the remaining butter.

  7. Put the pressure lid on turn the valve to seal. Set the pressure on high for 4 minutes. When the time is up, allow the pot to naturally release the pressure for 10 minutes, then manually release any remaining pressure. Remove the lid and stir.

  8. Add in the grated cheese and stir. Add in ¼ cup of heavy cream and stir. Continue to add the cream until the sauce is the consistency you like. Add in the dried parsley and stir.

  9. If you want to add in fresh spinach, add it in now and stir. Close the lid and let sit for a few minutes so it can wilt.

  10. Serve & Enjoy!
