Instructions

Prepare the pasta: Start by adding the uncooked pasta to the pressure cooker.
Create the base: In a separate pan, melt the butter over medium heat and sprinkle the flour while stirring.
Add the flavor: Toss in the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, then add the tomato paste.
Mix in liquids: Pour in the white wine or chicken broth and scrape the bottom of the pan to deglaze it.
Add cream: Stir in the heavy cream, sun-dried tomatoes, oregano, and crushed red pepper flakes, then season with salt and pepper.
Combine everything: Add the shredded cooked chicken and stir to combine all ingredients evenly.
Pressure cook: Pour the mixture over the uncooked pasta in the pressure cooker and cook for about 8-10 minutes.
Release pressure: Once the cooking time is complete, carefully release the pressure and stir in the grated parmesan cheese and fresh basil.
Serve: Garnish with additional parmesan cheese and fresh basil before serving.

Notes

Serve with garlic bread or a green salad for a complete meal.
