Instruction

  • Set your Instant Pot to the saute setting.  Add butter and melt.  Add carrots, onions and celery and saute (stirring often) for 2 minutes.  Add garlic and cook until fragrant (while stirring), about 30 seconds.
  • Add broth, water, rosemary, dill, salt, pepper and bay leaves.  Stir to combine.
  • Add chicken and turn off Instant Pot.
  • Place the lid on and lock.  Steam release knob should be set on "sealing". Cook on manual setting (high pressure) for 12 minutes.  When finished cooking, quick release the pressure.
  • Once pressure has completely released, remove lid and carefully remove chicken with tongs and transfer to a platter or cutting board.
  • Turn off Instant Pot and set to saute setting.  Add noodles and stir to combine.  Cook noodles until tender (stirring occasionally), about 6 minutes.
  • While noodles are cooking, remove skin from chicken and discard.  Remove chicken from bones and shred.  Discard bones.
  • Add shredded chicken to the noodles and stir to combine.  Remove and discard bay leaves.
  • Serve warm sprinkled with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
