Instructions
Creating Instant Pot Chicken And Noodle Dinner is easy. Follow these steps for a delicious meal:
1. Prep the Ingredients: Begin by chopping the vegetables and mincing the garlic. Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces for even cooking.
2. Sauté the Vegetables: Set the Instant Pot to the “Sauté” mode. Once hot, add olive oil, onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 3–4 minutes until the vegetables soften.
3. Add Garlic: Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
4. Add Chicken: Add the chicken pieces to the pot and season with thyme, parsley, black pepper, and salt. Stir to combine.
5. Add Broth: Pour in the chicken broth, ensuring the chicken and vegetables are fully submerged.
6. Add Noodles: Carefully add the egg noodles on top of the broth. Do not stir; this helps prevent the noodles from sticking to the bottom.
7. Seal the Instant Pot: Close the lid and ensure the valve is set to “Sealing.” Select the “Manual” or “Pressure Cook” mode and set the timer for 10 minutes.
8. Natural Release: Once the cooking time is complete, allow the Instant Pot to naturally release pressure for 10 minutes. Then, carefully switch the valve to “Venting” to release any remaining pressure.
9. Stir and Serve: Open the lid, stir the mixture well, and check for seasoning. Adjust salt and pepper as needed.
10. Garnish: Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
Following these steps will lead you to a delightful Instant Pot Chicken And Noodle Dinner that will impress your family and friends.
