Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 onion, diced

2 carrots, sliced

2 stalks celery, sliced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, diced

6 cups chicken broth

2 cups water

2 bay leaves

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon dried rosemary

Salt and pepper, to taste

2 cups uncooked egg noodles

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Method

Turn on the Instant Pot and select the "Saute" function. Heat the olive oil in the pot.

Add the diced onion, sliced carrots, and sliced celery to the pot. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables start to soften.

Add the minced garlic and diced chicken to the pot. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink.

Pour in the chicken broth and water, then add the bay leaves, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.

Close the lid of the Instant Pot and set the valve to the "Sealing" position. Select the "Manual" or "Pressure Cook" setting and set the timer for 5 minutes.

Once the cooking cycle is complete, allow the pressure to naturally release for 10 minutes, then carefully turn the valve to the "Venting" position to release any remaining pressure.

Carefully remove the lid and discard the bay leaves. Stir in the uncooked egg noodles.

Turn on the "Saute" function again and cook the soup for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the noodles are cooked to your desired level of doneness.

Taste and adjust the seasoning, if needed.

Ladle the Instant Pot Chicken Noodle Soup into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.

Serve hot and enjoy the comforting warmth of homemade chicken noodle soup.
