    Recipe for Instant Pot Parmesan Ranch Potatoes

    The flavors of Parmesan cheese and ranch seasoning go perfectly together. And making potatoes in your Instant Pot couldn’t be easier. I love the flavor of red potatoes. They’re also a bit sturdier than regular Idaho or russet potatoes. But you can certainly use russets too.  I always like to leave the skins on my red potatoes because they taste so good!

    After scrubbing the potatoes, slice them up into chunks about 1 inch in size. If the potatoes are small you can just cut in half. Just cut them up and toss them in the pot. Add the chicken broth,  then toss in a 1oz packet of dry ranch dressing/seasoning mix.

    After a 7 minute pressure cook, you’ll do a quick pressure release and start mixing in the Parmesan cheese. You do NOT want to just dump all the cheese in at once. You press cancel to stop the keep warm function, then use the sauté setting on low. Now add the cheese ¼ cup at a time while continually stirring into the potatoes and water. Slowly, the water will and cheese will thicken and by the time you have all the cheese mixed in, it will be a creamy delight. After all the cheese is mixed in be sure to press cancel to stop the sauté mode. Then you’re ready to serve your delicious Instant Pot Parmesan Ranch potatoes.

      Finally used the pressure cooker my mom gave me 3 yrs ago. Sadly I overcooked my pork loin but the potatoes saved dinner. First words out of my finances mouth was “oh wow! “. I I didn’t realize it would take my P. C. som long to prime so my sides and mains were all crazy. I have poor time management, so if you’re like me it took my cooker like 10+min to even start pressure cooking. Delicious side.

      So I’m not sure what I did wrong. However I tried twice and still they didn’t cook. I followed this recipe to a t and the first time I got a burn food notice, I transferred them to a smaller ip and a tad more liquid.. now they have zero flavor and didn’t cook all the way.

      I recently became vegetarian so finding recipes for dinner that isn’t the same thing over and over isn’t easy. I just substituted the chicken broth with vegetable broth and it was sooooo yummmy. I thought I did it wrong at first because there was still liquid after cooking but the cheese thickens it into a sauce. One of the only dishes where I didn’t feel like meat was missing. Will probably be making for that is giving this year!!

        I’m so glad you liked it, Christine! Yeah the sauce thickens up nicely after a few minutes. I hope your Thanksgiving guests love it too!

        I don’t like potatoes, but oh boy, this recipe sure made my husband a happy, happy man!
        I had a bag of mini golf potatoes, washed and cut them in half. Then followed the recipe exactly. He ate 2 helpings and saved enough to enjoy with his breakfast tomorrow morning.
