Equipment
- Pressure Cooker / Instant Pot
Ingredients
- 1 lb pot size spaghetti noodles
- 1 lb ground chuck or beef
- 32 oz (jar) marinara sauce
- 4 cups water
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ¼ tsp red pepper flakes
- 1 medium size onion chopped
- 3 garlic cloves minced
Instructions
- Set the sauté to high. Add ground meat and cook until no longer pink. Add onions, garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes or until fragrant. Deglaze the bottom of the pot with the grease. Drain meat and set a side.
- Add water, salt, Italian seasoning, black pepper and red pepper flakes to the pot. Mix well.
- Add pot sized spaghetti noodles or break the regular sized spaghetti noodles in half. Place the noodles in the pot in a 'crisscross' pattern (this will help prevent the noodles from sticking together). Top with marinara sauce and the cooked meat in that order (do not stir).
- Place the lid on. Pressure cook on high for 5 minutes, with a 5 minutes natural release (exercise caution when releasing pressure from the cooker). Follow the manufacture instructions for releasing the pressure. Remove the lid.
- Use silicone tongs to stir and mix the noodles well (this will help to loosen the noodles). Season with salt & pepper to taste. Optional: wait for 5 minutes before serving.
