Chicken bouillons: I love using chicken bouillons rather than chicken stock in this recipe for extra depth of flavor in the soup. I use Maggi Chicken Bouillon. If you don’t have any chicken bouillon handy, you can use chicken stock. See recipe card notes for details. Chicken: I like to use chicken breasts cut up in bite-sized pieces for quicker cooking. You can use chicken thighs if you prefer. Veggies: You will need onion, potatoes, carrots, celery, and garlic. These give this soup its heartiness and fresh flavors. Black pepper: For a nice boost of flavor. Cilantro: If you don’t like cilantro, you can use fresh parsley. Cornstarch: This will helps to thicken the soup. You can substitute for potato starch 1:1. Half and Half: You can also use heavy cream. Pasta: You can use any type of short pasta you like. I used Campanelle. If you have an egg allergy/intolerance, make sure the pasta is egg-free.
Storing Instructions
Storage: This Instant Pot Creamy Chicken Noodle Soup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The soup should be completely cool before you transfer it to the refrigerator.
Instant Pot / Pressure Cooker Instructions
Creamy chicken noodle soup is not your thing? No problem! Skip the cornstarch and cream. For an extra herby soup, feel free to add more herbs! Add 3 sprigs fresh thyme or use 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme and 2 bay leaf at the beginning, which helps to add an herby backbone to the broth. Swirl in fresh spinach or kale at the end of cooking for more of a vegetable-heavy soup. Swap the noodles for tortellini.
