You’ll also love this Juicy Instant Pot Chicken Breast and these Instant Pot Chicken Recipes! This Instant Pot Chicken Noodle Soup was one of the very first things I made in my pressure cooker. After making a few ridiculously easy recipes, like Instant Pot Baked Potatoes, How to Cook Frozen Chicken Breasts in the Instant Pot, and Instant Pot Taco Meat from Frozen Ground Beef, I decided it was time to try out a soup. I think soups and stews are some of the easiest recipes to make in the instant pot, especially if you’re just starting out. They have enough liquid that it easily comes to pressure and you won’t get that concerning “burn” message flashing on the screen. Plus you get that “I spent all day in the kitchen” flavor in just 5-10 minutes.
Ingredients Needed:
Canola Oil: we need just a little bit of oil to sauté the veggies before pressure cooking. Carrot, Celery, and Onion: the classic soup trio to create a flavor base and add plenty of texture. Chicken: you’ll need 1 boneless and skinless chicken breast cut into 1/2″ pieces. Seasonings: a simple blend of parsley, salt, minced garlic, thyme, and black pepper gives the soup the best flavor. Chicken Broth: I like to use low sodium so I can add salt to taste myself. Pasta: any short pasta will work. I usually use Ditalini or Orzo! Cream and Cornstarch: forms a slurry which makes the soup thicker and creamy. Chopped Spinach: a handful of fresh, chopped spinach wilted into the soup adds some extra color and texture.
How to Make Instant Pot Chicken Noodle Soup
This simple instant pot soup takes just 10 minutes to prep! See the detailed recipe in the card below.
Variations
Add more veggies. You can easily use other veggies. Add peppers, mushrooms, or anything that suits your fancy. Make it vegetarian. Leave out the chicken, use chicken broth, and add more veggies to change it up! Make it dairy-free. To make this soup dairy-free, simply leave out the milk. If you want to thicken it slightly, you can do so by substituting the milk for an additional cup of broth and cornstarch. Make it gluten-free. Just use a gluten-free pasta. Spice it up. Add a sprinkle of cayenne or red pepper flakes.
Serving Suggestions
Creamy Chicken Noodle Soup is great on its own, but if you want to bulk your meal up, serve it next to Garlic Bread or Breadsticks, Homemade Dinner Rolls, Roasted Green Beans, or Air Fryer Broccoli. Looking for more pairing ideas? Check out more of my easy side dish recipes!
