Ingredients
- 1 Large Yellow Onion
- 1 Tablespoon of Organic Olive Oil
- 2 Large Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
- 2 Large Carrots peeled and chopped
- 2 Celery Stalks chopped
- 1 Tablespoon of Parsley
- 1/4 Teaspoon of Cayenne Pepper
- 1/4 Teaspoon of Turmeric
- 1 Tablespoon of Garlic
- 1 Bay Leaf
- 1 Sprig of Fresh Rosemary
- 1 Sage Leaf
- 6 Cups of Low Sodium Chicken Broth
- 2 1/2 Cups of dry No Yolks Whole Grain Egg Noodles or the Basic No Yolks Egg Noodles - both delicious and nutritious.
Instructions
- Turn the Instant Pot on Saute. Add in your Olive Oil, Garlic and diced onion and stir with a wooden spoon for a couple of minutes until the onion starts to soften then add in your chopped carrots and celery and let them saute together with the onion for another 2 minutes then turn off Saute.
- Pour your Low Sodium Chicken Broth into your Instant Pot with the sautéed onions, carrots and celery.
- Add in your Uncooked Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
- Add in your Parsley, Cayenne, Turmeric, Bay Leaf, Rosemary Sprig and Sage Leaf
- Place your lid on your Instant Pot. Lock the lid and set the vent to the sealed position. Press Cook on high for 10 Minutes. If you are new to using an Instant Pot you will see that it takes about 10 minutes for the Instant Pot to build up pressure before it starts the cooking process, so even though the cook time is 10 minutes the whole process will take about 30 minutes. 10 minutes to build the pressure, 10 minutes to cook and then 10 minutes to naturally release the pressure.
- When the cooking cycle is complete let the pot naturally release the pressure for about 10 minutes then you can use the quick release to let out any additional remaining pressure.
- Open the lid and remove your chicken breasts with a slotted spoon or tongs and place them in a large stainless steel bowl. You can also use your slotted spoon to remove and discard the Bay Leaf, Rosemary Sprig and Sage Leaf.
- Shred your Chicken breasts with 2 forks or Shredder Claws and set aside.
- Turn your Instant Pot onto Saute. Once the broth begins to boil, add in your Egg Noodles and allow to simmer 8-10 minutes until tender.
- Add in your Shredded Chicken to your Noodles and Broth and you now have the most Delicious, Fresh and Healthy Soup.
