Ingredients
- 16 ounces (4 cups) uncooked elbow or shell macaroni
- 2 cups low sodium chicken broth
- 2 cups water
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, (cut into chunks)
- 1½ teaspoons Dijon mustard
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1½ cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1½ cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1½ cups (or more) half and half cream, (warmed)
Steps
-
To the Instant Pot, add the macaroni, water and chicken broth. Set the Instant Pot to "sealing," and then cook on manual, high pressure for 4 minutes with a "quick release" following.
-
Open the Instant Pot and stir in the butter, Dijon, salt and pepper. Stir in the cheeses a little at a time. Stir in ½ cup of the cream. You want the cheese to be completely melted and the consistency to be nice and creamy. Add more cream as needed.
