Instant Pot Chicken And Pasta Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Turn a 6-quart Instant Pot® to the high saute setting. Add the oil and once hot add the carrots, celery, garlic, onions, 1 tablespoon salt and a large pinch of pepper. Cook, stirring, until the vegetables are slightly softened, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Add the chicken, ginger, if using, and 8 cups water. Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 20 minutes.
• After the pressure cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for quick release and wait until the quick release cycle is complete. Being careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid. Remove the ginger and discard. Use a pair of tongs to remove the chicken from the pot and put into a large bowl and allow to cool for several minutes.
• Switch the Instant Pot® to the high saute setting and bring the soup to a boil. Once boiling, add the noodles and cook until al dente, 5 to 7 minutes.
• While the noodles are cooking, use 2 forks to remove the skin and bones from the chicken and shred the meat into bite-size pieces. Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper, then add the meat back to the pot along with the dill. Season the soup with additional salt and pepper if needed.

Steps:

• Combine water, chicken, celery, carrots, onion, chicken soup base, oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, pepper, curry powder, and bay leaves in a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 15 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 10 to 40 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
• Discard bay leaves. Remove chicken breasts and dice; be careful, it's hot.
• Return chicken to the pot with pastina. Select Saute function and boil, uncovered, until pasta is tender, about 4 minutes.

Steps:

• In a medium sized bowl, mix together salt, Italian seasoning, paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper.
• Add diced chicken to bowl and toss until chicken is full coated in seasonings.
• Plug in the Instant Pot and press the SAUTE button. Add 1 Tablespoon of butter and let it heat up. Add the chicken and onion and saute until chicken is seared on all sides.
• Cancel the saute function and pour in the chicken broth. Add the pasta and stir, making sure that all pasta is immersed in the broth.
• Place the lid on the Instant Pot and secure in place. Turn the vent to SEALING. Press the MANUAL button and set the timer for 4 minutes.
• When cooking is finished, move the vent to VENTING and do a QUICK RELEASE of the pressure.
• Remove the lid and stir in remaining butter, cream, cream cheese, and Parmesan cheese. If desired, top with fresh basil and serve.

Steps:

• Place chicken in a bowl and sprinkle with Cajun seasoning. Stir until coated.
• Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®), add olive oil, and select Saute function. Add seasoned chicken to the hot oil and saute, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 5 minutes. Add onion and continue to saute until chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes longer. Stir to scrape up any bits from the bottom of the pot.
• Pour dry pasta on top of chicken and add water just until pasta is barely covered. Place spinach on top of pasta and cancel Saute function.
• Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 1 minute. 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, and stir to combine ingredients.
• Switch to Saute function. Add whipping cream and then add basil pesto; stir to combine. Stir in Parmesan cheese and close the lid. Cook, covered, until cheese melts, about 5 minutes. Remove lid, stir to combine, and serve.

Steps:

• Turn on Instant Pot and program to sauté. Melt butter or ghee in Instant Pot.
• While waiting for butter to melt, season chicken with salt, pepper, thyme, and parsley.
• Sauté onions, garlic, carrots, and celery for 3-5 minutes or until they begin softening. Toss in any remaining seasoning from chicken and lemon juice.
• Arrange chicken in Instant Pot. Cover with chicken broth. If you are using regular egg noodles, you can also toss noodles into the Instant Pot at this time. Gluten free noodles must be cooked on stove top.
• Lock lid in place and close pressure valve. Cook on high pressure for 7 minutes using the Poultry setting. Manually depressurize by carefully turning steam valve. If using gluten free noodles, now is the time to cook them.
• Remove chicken from soup to shred. If you noodles absorbed most of the broth, and more broth until noodles are covered. Add chicken back to soup and stir. Top with parsley if desired.

Steps:

• Season chicken with salt and pepper. On 6-quart Instant Pot®, select SAUTE; adjust to normal. Heat butter in insert. Add chicken; cook 5 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned. Select CANCEL.
