Instant Pot Creamy Brussels Sprouts with Bacon

🧂 Ingredients

• 2 lbs fresh brussels sprouts

  washed, trimmed, and cut in half lengthwise
• 1 tbsp butter
• salt & pepper
• 2 tbsp minced garlic
• 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
• 6 oz cream cheese

  softened and cut into cubes
• 1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
• 6 slices bacon

  cooked crisp and crumbled

Instructions

• 1 Add the prepared sprouts to the liner of your Instant Pot, then pour in the
  chicken broth.
• 2 On top of the sprouts, add the cream cheese, butter, garlic, salt & pepper.
• 3 Close the lid, and set the vent valve to seal.
• 4 Set the pot to pressure cook on high for 2 minutes. Once the timer beeps,
  carefully open the vent valve (avoid the hot steam), and do a quick release of
  the built up pressure.
• 5 Carefully open the lid, and stir everything just until the sauce has come
  together. If it's too hot, wait a minute or two until the heat and remaining
  steam have cleared before continuing to stir.
• 6 Stir in the Parmesan and bacon, until incorporated.
• 7 Add the lid back to the pot, turning to close and let everything rest for 3-5
  minutes. The sauce will thicken some as it sits.
• 8 Serve the sprouts warm, with extra crumbled bacon if desired, and enjoy!
