Let’s take a look at how to make this chicken noodle soup recipe, shall we?
🥘 Ingredients
- Boneless, skinless chicken breast
- Olive oil
- Chicken broth
- Water
- Carrot
- Celery
- Dried parsley
- Minced onion
- Garlic powder
- Wide egg noodles
- Salt and ground black pepper
🔪Instructions
Cut chicken into ½-inch cubes. Cut celery stalks into ⅛-inch pieces. Dice carrots or cut them into ¼-inch rounds.
Set Instant Pot to the Saute setting and drizzle olive oil in the pot. Add the chicken and cook until the chicken is heated all through.
Once the chicken is cooked, push the Cancel button and add the remaining ingredients to the Instant Pot. Stir until combined.
⏲️ Cooking Time
Set the Instant Pot to Pressure Cook and adjust the time to 8 minutes. Once the soup has cooked, quick release the hot steam.
Stir the soup and ladle into bowls. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
📖 Kitchen Notes
- A 12-ounce bag of noodles will fill the pot and will result in a hearty soup. If you prefer a soup on the lighter side, only use half a bag.
- You can substitute broken linguine or fettuccini noodles for the egg noodles.
- To save time, you can use precooked chicken. Simply add the chicken along with the remaining ingredients, pressure cook the soup for 8 minutes, and perform a quick release.
- Don’t worry too much about making sure the chicken is fully cooked. If it is not fully cooked during the first step, it will finish cooking in the pressure cooker.
- You can omit the water and use 6 cups of chicken broth. You may use chicken stock in place of the broth for extra flavor.
- Because of the volume of this soup, it will take a while for the Instant Pot to build up enough pressure to cook the soup.
💬Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Once the soup has cooled, place it in a plastic Ziplock bag, remove the air, date the bag, and seal it. For best results, use within 3 months. To reheat, remove the frozen soup from the Ziplock bag and place it in a large stock pot. Reheat over medium heat until the soup is warm all the way through.
