Time 1h40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

½ (8 ounce) package elbow macaroni
1 ½ cups water
1 large egg
⅓ cup diced red bell pepper
⅓ cup cubed pepper Jack cheese
¼ cup diced jalapeno pepper, or to taste
¼ cup sliced celery
2 tablespoons diced onion
½ cup mayonnaise
½ tablespoon apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons chile-garlic sauce (such as Sriracha®)
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Place macaroni into the bottom of a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and pour in water. Add a trivet on top of that, so that it sits above the the water, and place the egg on it. Close and lock the lid; turn the valve to Sealing. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 5 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
  • Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Remove the egg and place into a bowl of ice water for 5 minutes; remove the trivet.
  • Leave the macaroni in the liner, but remove it from the Instant Pot® to avoid additional residual cooking. Add several ice cubes and cold water to the liner, stirring macaroni, which will stop the cooking process.
  • Pour macaroni into a colander; drain very well to avoid a watery macaroni salad. Dry out the inside of the liner and return the macaroni to the liner.
  • Peel the egg and dice. Add egg, red bell pepper, pepper Jack cheese, jalapeno, celery, and onion to the pot and stir.
  • Whisk mayonnaise, vinegar, Sriracha, salt, garlic powder, cayenne, and black pepper together in a small bowl. Add dressing to the macaroni mixture, stir until well incorporated. Transfer the salad to a bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, allowing time for the flavors to meld.

This is a very good, but spicy Macaroni Salad. You can always use less spice if you don't like it hot. You could also turn this into a main entree by adding 2 cans of tuna or chicken to this salad.

SPICY MACARONI SALAD RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Spicy Macaroni Salad Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by á-38403

Number Of Ingredients 11

INGREDIENTS
1 cup uncooked macaroni
1 medium carrot or 5 baby carrots
2 medium stalks of celery
4 eggs
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup of mustard
1 1/4 teaspoon celery salt
3/4 teaspoon garlic salt
3/4 teaspoon onion salt
Paprika

Steps:

  • 1. Boil you macaroni for about 11 minutes in salted water. In a separate pan, hard boil the 4 eggs. 2. While you are waiting for you macaroni and eggs to boil, grate the carrots and chop the celery into small pieces. 3. When the eggs are done hard boiling, run them under some cold water to cool them off. Cut three of the eggs into small chunks and save the fourth to slice and add to the top of the salad. All four can be chopped into the salad if you'd prefer. 4. In your bowl, add the cooked macaroni that has been cooled, the mayonnaise, mustard, celery salt, garlic salt, and onion salt. The mustard, mayonnaise and spices can be adjusted based on how creamy or spicy you want your salad to be. Add the eggs at the end and mix it gently so that they don't get broken apart. 5. When the salad has been mixed, add the sliced egg and sprig of the celery leaf to the top of the salad. Then, dust the finished salad with a little paprika for color.
