Step 1

Dump ingredients: Follow this order - Add frozen meatballs directly from the freezer into the steel insert of the instant pot. Than throw in the pasta and spread them in a sigle layer on top of the meatballs. Pour in the chicken stock all over the pasta. DO NOT mix. Throw in the onion, garlic, Worcestershire sauce. Pour the Marinara sauce on top of the pasta and make sure that the pastas are all covered with sauce. Add the rotel (do not drain the juices). Now, sprinkle the seasonings on top, add the olive oil and DO NOT mix or stir!

Step 2

Pressure Cook: Secure the lid of the instant pot, seal the valve and PRESSURE COOK on HIGH for just 5 mins. Once, the pressure cooking cycle is over the instant pot will begin to beep, immediately perform a quick pressure release manually by moving the valve from the sealing to the venting position. Open the lid carefully when the metal pin drops. You'll have a beautiful bubbling sauce on the top. TURN OFF the instant pot.

Step 3

Mix & Serve: Now, gently stir the penne pasta and meatballs with the spatula and mix well all the ingredients in the pot. Do a taste test and check for salt, you may add a few dashes salt to make the flavors pop. Add salt according to your personal preference. Now, throw in the shredded Mozzarella all over the pasta & put back the lid. Rest for 5 mins or until the cheese melts. Open the lid and serve the penne and meatballs right away. You may give it a quick stir to mix in the melted cheese. Top with more cheese, garnish with fresh chopped basil and serve. Enjoy!
