Instant Pot Hamburger Helper

Step 1

Turn Instant Pot to saute, add oil, and let heat.

Step 2

Once the oil has heated, add in the meat and brown it fully, breaking it up into small pieces. Once the meat is cooked, turn off the pressure cooker. Drain off any fat and return the inner pot back to the inner pot.

Step 3

Add 1 cup of beef broth to the inner pot and use a spatula or spoon to scrape up all the browned bits off the bottom of the inner pot.

Step 4

Add in garlic powder, onion powder, salt, paprika, and Worcestershire sauce, and stir well to combine.

Step 5

Add in noodles and gently push them down into the sauce. You want the noodles just submerged into the liquid. Top the noodles with tomato sauce.

Step 6

Set to cook on high pressure for 3 minutes (hit manual or pressure cook and adjust time by using +/_ buttons until the timer reads 3).

Step 7

Once the cooking time has elapsed, let the pressure release naturally for 5 minutes. Then do a quick release of any remaining pressure--be sure to stand away from the vent knob when releasing pressure.

Step 8

Fluff the noodles with a fork to incorporate everything. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed and serve.
