Notes: If you’d like your pasta al dente then use only 3/4 cup water.
Salt depends on the type of marinara sauce used and your taste preference. I used Prego (tomato, basil , garlic) sauce and used 3/4 teaspoon salt.
Chicken breasts – I prefer only boneless, skinless chicken thighs for this Instant Pot Chicken Parmesan Pasta recipe, but you could easily sub with 1 to 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts instead.
