Do You Cook The Noodles First For Chicken Noodle Soup?

No, that is the beauty of the Instant Pot.

All you have to do is place the noodles in your Instant Pot.

The Instant Pot will then prepare the uncooked noodles with the rest of your soup!

Instant Pot Chicken Noodle Soup Ingredients

It takes just a few simple ingredients to make the BEST Healthy Instant Pot Chicken Noodle Soup!

Here’s what you’ll need to make yours…

Rotisserie Chicken – this is an easy shortcut that also helps to enhance the flavors of your soup.

Chicken Broth – this broth will form the base of your soup, so I recommend using a quality chicken broth.

Yellow Onion – this onion helps to add the rich flavors to your soup that make it a real show stopper!

Carrots and Celery – these veggies help to give your soup the expected crunch that you expect from a gourmet chicken noodle soup.

Bay Leaves – these will add a slight minty flavor to your soup that will make it feel lighter.

Thyme – using thyme is an easy way to make almost any soup taste better, including this Instant Pot Noodle Soup.

Pepper – while the Chicken Broth will add the needed salt to this soup, it will still taste so much better with some fresh ground pepper too!

How To Make Instant Pot Chicken Noodle Soup

Instant Pot Chicken Noodle Soup Recipe

Make your favorite homestyle soup Instant Pot fast with this Quick and Easy Instant Pot Chicken Noodle Soup Recipe!
Prep Time15 minutes
Cook Time7 minutes
Total Time22 minutes
Servings: 8

Ingredients

  • 8 cups Swanson Chicken Broth (64 oz.)
  • 3 cups cooked Rotisserie Chicken, shredded (use thigh and drumstick meat for flavor)
  • 1/3 pound Linguine Noodles broken into quarters (approx. 5 oz.)
  • 1 cup finely chopped Yellow Onion (about 1 medium onion)
  • 1 cup peeled and thinly sliced Carrots (about 3 medium carrots)
  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced Celery (about 1.5 stalks)
  • 3 Bay Leaves
  • 2 Tbsp Cooking Oil (I used Avocado Oil)
  • 1/2 tsp dried Thyme Leaves
  • 1 tsp fresh ground Black Pepper
  • optional: add Salt to taste

Instructions

  • Add oil to Instant Pot, set to 'Saute' mode, then add Onion, Carrots and Celery, and saute for 3 – 5 minutes or until onions look translucent.
  • Once onions are done, cancel Saute setting.
  • Add to Instant Pot the Chicken Broth, Shredded Chicken, Bay Leaves, Thyme, Pepper and broken Noodles.
  • Make sure to fully submerge your noodles in the broth.
  • Place lid on pot and select Pressure Cook, High Pressure and change cook time to 7 minutes.
  • Preheat will begin 10 seconds after settings have been selected.
  • Once cook time has completed, quick release pressure before removing lid. (I suggest a gradual quick release for less splatter and mess)
  • Allow soup to cool for 5 minutes, remove 3 bay leaves, then stir and serve!

Notes

It will take approx. 18 – 20 minutes for Instant Pot to reach pressure before your selected cook time begins. This is in addition to the 7 minute cook time you have selected.
If using a Crock Pot Pressure Cooker, select the “Beans/Chili” setting to manually override cook time and pressure settings.

    As always you are a total genius when it comes to quick and easy meals, Heidi! I would have never thought about adding rotisserie chicken to the Insta Pot. We use ours a few times a month and even more during cold weather seasons for soups. I could eat soup every day and I’m so excited to try this recipe. Hugs, CoCo

    Looks delicious, Heidi. My husband makes a mean chicken soup but with chick peas and butter beans rather than noodles – might be time for a change this month!
