I’ve been diligently working to convert a lot of our favorite recipes into Instant Pot recipes lately. I am just in love with this Instant Pot, y’all! This recipe for Cajun Shrimp Alfredo is a family favorite and a big time go-to dinner on busy nights for me. So of course I had to try it in the Instant Pot. It was delicious!
Ingredients:
1 bag frozen shrimp, defrosted
1 box pasta
3 cups water
1/2 tsp salt
2 jars Alfredo sauce
2 tsp minced garlic
1 Tbsp cajun seasoning
Directions:
1. Pour dry pasta in Instant Pot.
2. Add water and salt.
3. Seal and cook on manual high pressure for 4 minutes.
4. When done, use quick release and keep Instant Pot on warming.
5. Add shrimp, alfredo sauce, minced garlic, and cajun seasoning; stir.
6. Stir occasionally until heated through.
Now this calls for 1 Tbsp of Cajun seasoning but if you like your Cajun Alfredo spicy then add more. I actually ended up using 3 Tbsp in this and my kids still added more! Definitely a fast, easy and yummy weeknight dinner option! I’ve added this one to our regular menu plan.
