4 servings

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 5 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 ounces ziti pasta
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 (20 ounce) jar prepared marinara sauce
  • 8 ounces ricotta cheese
  • 4 fresh basil leaves, chiffonade
  • 8 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
  • 0.5 cup shredded Provel cheese, divided

Instructions

  • Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Once hot, add oil and onion. Sauté until onion starts to soften, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 45 seconds. Add 1/2 of the ziti pasta and water.
  • Mix together ricotta and marinara sauce in a bowl. Pour 1/2 of the ricotta mixture over the ziti in the Instant Pot. Sprinkle with 1/2 mozzarella and 1/2 Provel cheeses. Add remaining ziti pasta and top with remaining ricotta mixture.
  • Cancel Sauté mode. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 10 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
  • Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Top with remaining mozzarella and Provel cheeses and allow to melt. Once cheeses have melted serve garnished with basil leaves.
