Instructions
Step 1
Select Browning/Saute and add the bacon to the pressure cooking pot. Fry for about 5 minutes until crisp, stirring frequently, Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate, leaving the bacon fat in the pot.
Step 2
Add the onion. Sauté for 3 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté for 1 minute more. Stir in the chicken broth, barbecue sauce, honey, and soy sauce. Add the chicken and pasta and stir to combine. Add enough water to cover the pasta, about 1 quart (946 ml). Lock the lid in place. Select High Pressure and 5 minutes cook time.
Step 3
When the cook time ends, turn off the pressure cooker. Use a quick pressure release or if necessary, use an intermittent release to prevent liquid from coming out of the valve. When the valve drops, carefully remove the lid. Stir the mixture and taste for doneness. If needed, select Simmer/Sauté and cook for 2 to 5 minutes more, stirring often, until the pasta is tender. Stir in the Monterey Jack a little at a time until it melts. Stir in the bacon and parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
