INSTANT POT PARMESAN RANCH POTATOES

INSTANT POT PARMESAN RANCH POTATOES
Your Instant Pot pressure cooker is perfect for making this quick and easy Parmesan Ranch potatoes recipe. You only need a few simple ingredients and a handful of potatoes and you’re ready to make the tastiest, cheesiest potatoes that everyone will love.
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, though both are excellent too. I always like to leave the skins on my red potatoes because they taste so good!
After scrubbing the potatoes, slice them up about 1/2 inch thick. Then cut those slices in quarters. Red potatoes vary in size. 2 lbs of red potatoes will wind up being around 6-8 potatoes. It’s ok if you’re over or under a little. Just cut em up and toss them in the pot. I’ve found that the perfect cooking liquid is a combination of water and low-sodium chicken broth. You can certainly use one or the other, but I think the flavors are perfect using 1/2 cup of chicken broth and 1/2 cup of water. Then toss in a 1oz packet of dry ranch dressing/seasoning mix.

  • 2 lbs red potatoes
