Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoons salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 8 oz fettuccine noodles broken in half
  • 12 oz small frozen raw shrimp (peeled and deveined)*
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese shredded

Instructions

  • Add chicken broth, cream, garlic, salt, pepper, parsley, and butter to the Instant Pot.
  • Scatter the noodles over the liquid, alternating the direction of the noodles to prevent sticking. Pat the noodles down slightly to submerge them in as much liquid as possible.
  • Lock the lid, turn the knob to sealing, then pressure cook on high pressure for 7 minutes. Allow a 5 minute natural pressure release.
  • Remove the lid, and stir the noodles and sauce together. Dump the bag of shrimp into the pot and stir. Replace the lid and let steam through using the residual heat for about 5 minutes (do not pressure cook or use the "steam" setting). Remove the lid and stir the noodles until the shrimp are pink and fully cooked. Slowly sprinkle in the parmesan cheese and mix to combine. Serve immediately.

Notes

*You may use any size shrimp you want, but note they will take longer to cook after adding them to the pot. You may also use fresh shrimp and saute them on the stove with butter, salt, and pepper. Add the sauteed shrimp either on top of, or mixed into the fettuccine.
