Ingredients:

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 medium yellow onion, finely diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste
  • 24 oz marinara sauce
  • 1 lb spaghetti noodles, broken in half
  • 3 cups beef broth
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions:

  1. Set the Instant Pot to Sauté mode. Add olive oil and ground beef, cooking until the meat is browned and no longer pink.
  2. Stir in the diced onion and garlic, sautéing for 3–4 minutes until onions are translucent. Drain excess grease if necessary.
  3. Turn off the Sauté function. Pour in the marinara sauce and stir to combine with the meat base.
  4. Lay the broken spaghetti noodles over the sauce in a crisscross pattern (some vertical, some horizontal) to ensure steam circulation.
  5. Pour the beef broth over the noodles. Do not stir.
  6. Secure the lid, set to high pressure for 7 minutes, and allow a natural pressure release.
  7. Stir in grated Parmesan cheese and garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
