One of our favorite meals! My kids love it! I make it basically a one pot instant pot meal. I forgot once to mix chicken and seasoning separately so I did it altogether with the olive oil, I used chicken broth instead of water and poured that in while chicken was still in pot to deglaze. It was completely fine! I left the chicken at the bottom then added the pasta, Buffalo sauce, butter and remaining broth. I do this so I won’t get a burn notice or the pasta over cooking. 4 min pressure is perfect for us. Tried 5 mins and the pasta is very mushy for us. 4 is perfect. I also shred a block of cheese rather then using bag shredded and I cube the cream cheese. We also found the Sweet Baby Rays Mild Buffalo sauce is PERFECT in this recipe. We have made this recipe for years now and it never fails us! Thanks for such a wonderful recipe!

This is delicious!! I followed the recipe without any changes, and everyone in my house loved it! I used Frank’s Buffalo Wing sauce, which was recommended in the recipe. Thank you!!

I meant to say Buffalo has butter or fat in it. Sorry!!

No, Franks is hot sauce. There is a different product called Buffalo sauce. Franks does make a version. So does Sweet baby Rays. It’s not that much different from hot sauce. I think hot sauce has butter or some kind of fat in it.

I’ve made this several times. It’s a favorite because it’s delicious AND quick/easy.

Instead of the Buffalo sauce, I use the original Frank’s Hot Sauce (because I want the fewer, simpler ingredients) and I change the amount to 2/3 cup.

Thanks for this awesome recipe!

I thought so but now I am confused by another comment on here. Thank you!

Made this for dinner tonight and it did not disappoint! It was very rich and cheesy. The buffalo sauce adds just enough spice to give it a little kick, but is not too overpowering. We omitted the ranch packet and used our own mix of seasonings. The cooked macaroni did stick to the bottom a little, despite deglazing the pot, but came up as I mixed the other ingredients in. I’m going to make this again, for sure!

There is so much flavor in this dish, and it took no time to put together. I’ll make it again for sure!
