Description

A one pot Instant Pot pasta recipe with Italian sausage, marinara sauce, parmesan and bacon that tastes like a cross between pasta carbonara and baked ziti.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 oz Italian sausage
  • 1 cup diced onion
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 8 oz rigatoni
  • 1 (25 oz) jar marinara sauce (I used Mezzetta brand)
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 1/4 cup shredded parmesan
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 cup bacon crumbles
  • Fresh basil, for topping

Instructions

  1. Turn Instant Pot to sauté setting. When display says HOT add in the sausage and break it up. Add in the onions and brown for 5 minutes. Drain off excess grease. Stir in the garlic.
  2. Pour in the broth and scrape bottom of pot so that nothing is sticking. Turn off Instant Pot. 
  3. Sprinkle in the rigatoni. Dump the marinara sauce on the top. Don’t stir.
  4. Cover Instant Pot and secure the lid. Make sure valve is set to sealing. Set manual/pressure cook button to 3 minutes. When time is up let pot sit for 5 minutes and then move valve to venting. Remove the lid. 
  5. In a small bowl whisk together the egg yolks, parmesan and black pepper. Stir the egg mixture in slowly while the pasta is hot but not aggressively boiling so the sauce stays smooth and creamy instead of scrambling.
  6. Stir in the bacon.
  7. Serve topped with some fresh chopped basil.
