Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large onion, diced
- 1 ½ pounds chicken breasts, boneless, skinless
- 3 large carrots, sliced
- 3 stalks celery, sliced
- 2–3 bay leaves
- 6 cups chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 cups egg noodles, uncooked
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (plus more for garnish)
Instructions
- Turn the Instant Pot to sauté and add the olive oil. Once hot, add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened and translucent.
- Add the sliced carrots, celery, bay leaves, chicken breasts, chicken broth, salt, and pepper to the Instant Pot. Stir to combine.
- Close the lid and set the steam release valve to sealing position. Select manual/high pressure and set the timer for 10 minutes.
- Once cooking is complete, allow pressure to naturally release for 10 minutes. Carefully switch the steam release valve to venting position to release remaining pressure.
- Open the lid and remove the chicken breasts. Shred the chicken with two forks and set aside. Discard the bay leaves.
- Turn the Instant Pot back to sauté and bring the soup to a boil. Add the egg noodles and simmer for 6-8 minutes, until tender.
- Stir the shredded chicken back into the soup with fresh chopped parsley. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
- Serve hot, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
