Instant Pot Chicken Pasta Soup

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Instant Pot Chicken Pasta Soup.

1. Step 1

   To create a delicious and comforting chicken soup in your Instant Pot, start by adding water, chicken breasts, diced celery, carrots, onion, chicken soup base, olive oil, minced garlic, dried rosemary, ground thyme, black pepper, curry powder, and bay leaves into the pot.

2. Step 2

   Once everything is combined, securely close and lock the lid.

3. Step 3

   Now, select the high-pressure setting according to your Instant Pot's instructions and set the timer for 15 minutes.

4. Step 4

   As the pot heats up, it will take about 10 to 15 minutes for the pressure to build, filling your kitchen with enticing aromas.

5. Step 5

   When the timer goes off, it’s time to release the pressure using the natural-release method, which can take anywhere from 10 to 40 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.

6. Step 6

   Once the pressure has fully released, carefully unlock and remove the lid.

7. Step 7

   Don’t forget to discard the bay leaves! Transfer the chicken breasts to a cutting board and, using caution as they will be hot, dice them into bite-sized pieces.

8. Step 8

   Return the diced chicken to the pot, along with some pastina for that perfect touch of comfort.

9. Step 9

   Now, select the 'Sauté' function and bring your soup to a gentle boil, leaving it uncovered.

    Cook for about 4 minutes, or until the pasta is tender and ready to soak up all those wonderful flavors.
