Servings: 6
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 medium onion diced
- 2 carrots sliced into half moons
- 2 celery chopped
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- ¼ cup parsley chopped
- 1 tsp salt plus more to taste
- ¼ tsp black pepper plus more to taste
- 2 bay leaves
- 3 sprigs fresh thyme
- 2 chicken breasts
- 64 oz chicken broth or more if desired
- 8 oz. wide egg noodles
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Press saute on your instant pot and set it for 6 minutes, then add the butter. Once it’s melted, which will take a minute or two, add the onion, carrots and celery and saute for 3-4 minutes, then add the garlic, parsley, salt and pepper and continue sauteing until the timer is up.
Next, add the bay leaves and thyme, then set the chicken breasts on top. Pour the broth over everything, then place the lid on your instant pot, ensuring the knob on top is in the “seal” position.
Pressure cook for 10 minutes, then immediately manually release the pressure. Remove the chicken to a cutting board or a plate and shred it.
Next, pour the egg noodles into the instant pot, then press saute and set it for 10 minutes. Simmer the soup until the noodles are cooked (this will take 8-10 minutes, so you may not need the full 10 minutes).
Remove the bay leaves and thyme, then add the chicken back in and give the soup a good stir.
Season with additional salt and pepper, serve with fresh parsley sprinkled on top and enjoy!
