Our IP Version of OLIVE GARDEN’S Pasta e Fagioli with Ground Beef and Fresh Basil Talk about a classic! And Olive Garden’s version is even better than the norm because it’s packed with so much goodness in every spoonful. Although this dish appears in the soup section on the chain’s menu, our copycat (and the original) is really more of a well- stocked stew, even a beef- and- bean casserole with lots of vegetables. Make sure you only use lean ground beef to avoid a grease slick in the pot. The original (as with our copycat) has red kidney beans. If you’re not a fan, omit them and use an additional 15-ounce can of cannellini beans, drained and rinsed. Although not in keeping with the original, we found we wanted to spice up the dish. If you feel the same, add up to 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes with the dried spices. Or simply garnish the servings with those fiery flakes.

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cook Time 25 minutes

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Ingredients

1 tbsp olive oil
1 lb lean ground beef (at least 93% lean or more)
1 medium yellow or white onion (peeled and chopped (1 cup))
2 medium celery stalks (chopped (½ cup))
1 medium carrot (peeled and chopped (⅓ cup))
4 cups chicken broth (1 quart)
One 28-ounce can of diced tomatoes packed in juice (3 ½ cups)
One 15-ounce can of red kidney beans (drained and rinsed (1¾ cups))
One 15-ounce can of cannellini beans (drained and rinsed (1¾ cups))
6 oz raw dried ditalini or tubetti pasta (that is (tiny pasta tubes or slightly longer tubes))
3 medium garlic cloves (peeled and minced (1 tablespoon))
1 tbsp dried Italian seasoning spice blend
1/2 tsp table salt
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
Finely grated or shredded Parmigiano- Reggiano (for garnishing)
Thinly sliced fresh basil leaves (for garnishing)

Steps:

Press SAUTÉ and set to MEDIUM, NORMAL, OR CUSTOM 300°F for 10 minutes. Press START if needed.
As the pot heats, warm the oil in the insert set in a 5-, 6-, 8-, or 10-quart Instant Pot. Crumble in the ground beef and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, about 4 minutes.
Stir in the onion, celery, and carrot. Cook, stirring often, until the onion softens, about 3 minutes. Pour in the broth and scrape up any browned bits on the bottom of the insert.
Stir in the tomatoes (with their juice), the kidney beans, cannellini beans, pasta, garlic, Italian seasoning blend, salt, and pepper until well combined. Turn off the SAUTÉ function and lock the lid onto the cooker.
For the MAX Model: Set pot for PRESSURE COOK on MAX pressure. Set the time for 8 minutes with the KEEP WARM setting off. Press START if needed.
For other Instant Pot models: Set pot for PRESSURE COOK or MANUAL on HIGH pressure. Set the time for 10minutes with the KEEP WARM setting off. Press START if needed.
When the pot has finished cooking, use the quick- release method to bring the pressure back to normal. Unlatch the lid and open the cooker. Stir well, then serve hot with fresh basil and finely grated or shredded Parmigiano-Reggiano as a garnish over the servings.

Total Time 30 minutes

Cook Time 30 minutes

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 4), cut into 1-inch pieces
2 1/2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
2 medium green bell peppers, stemmed, seeded and cut into 1/4-inch strips
1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, chopped
12 ounces smooth penne (see Cook's Note)
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
One 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes
6 ounces cream cheese, cubed, at room temperature
Kosher salt
4 scallions, sliced, for serving

Steps:

Heat the oil in large wide pot over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and Cajun seasoning and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken just starts to change color and the spices are toasted, about 2 minutes.
Add the peppers and onions and cook until they just begin to release some of their juices, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook until softened, 1 minute.
Add the pasta, chicken broth and tomatoes and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. When it boils, continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is al dente and the sauce is thickened and reduced by about half, about 15 minutes.
Remove from the heat and add the cream cheese and 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt. Stir until the cream cheese is combined and melted. Don't worry if the sauce looks runny, it will thicken as it sits. Top with sliced scallions.

BONE-IN CHICKEN BREASTS – INSTANT POT RECIPES

Unlike boneless breasts, bone-in chicken breasts are thicker and thus benefit from being set down in the liquid in the pot (rather than up on a rack or in a steamer). You’ll use less liquid here than with our technique for boneless skinless breasts because these breasts will thaw and release water and other liquid into the pot as they cook.Because of the way the bones add a distinct depth of flavor to the meat, bone-in chicken breasts are a great choice if you want to debone and chop the meat for chicken salad and pasta salad, or to slice the meat for sandwiches. Be forewarned: You must check the internal temperature of the meat with an instant-read meat thermometer. Bone-in breasts have varying thicknesses — and varying amounts of internal moisture depending on whether they’ve been injected with a brining solution. While our timing worked several times in testing, there are safety concerns with eating undercooked poultry. Better safe than sorry. See step 3 for more details on checking the meat’s internal temperature.Finally, to get the skin crisp, transfer the cooked breasts skin side up onto a lipped baking sheet. Set the oven rack about 6 inches from the broiler, heat the broiler, then brown the breasts under it for 1– 2 minutes.

Use kitchen tongs to transfer the breasts to serving plates or a serving platter to serve. Or cool them at room temperature for 10 minutes or so, then store in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
