Instant Pot Chicken and Noodles

4457 1

Ingredients

2 Large Frozen Skinless/Boneless Chicken Breasts
2 Cans Cream of Chicken Soup
2 14.5oz Cans of Chicken Broth or use homemade, about 3 1/2 cups
1 Stick of Butter unsalted (use 1/2 stick if you are trying to cut down on fat content)
1 Garlic Clove pressed (or 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder)
1/2 tsp Poultry Seasoning
1/2 tsp Kosher Salt
1/2 tsp Black Pepper
2 12oz Packages Frozen Egg Noodles Or 1 24oz bag. I use the Reames brand.

Instructions

Set your Instant Pot to Sautรฉ mode (just to get things warming up and start melting the butter, not to actually saute anything).
Add the butter, broth, cream soup, salt, pepper, garlic, and poultry seasoning. Stir until combined.
Add the chicken breasts.
Cancel sautรฉ mode.
Put the lid on your Instant Pot, set the steam release knob to the Sealing position.
Press the Poultry button (or Manual, or Pressure Cook), and the time for 25 mins (If your chicken is fresh and not frozen, decrease the time to 15 minutes, though this will depend on the thickness of the pieces. If they donโ€™t shred easily after 15 mins, put back in and cook a few minutes longer).
After cooking cycle ends, let it sit and do a 10 minute Natural Release, then manually release the remaining pressure and when the pin drops, open the lid.
Press the Keep Warm/Cancel button to turn off the pot. Then press the Sautรฉ button to keep the contents heating.
Take the chicken out and set on a plate.
Add the egg noodles to the pot.
Shred the chicken using 2 forks. It should shred very easily.
Put the shredded chicken back into the pot, stir, and put the lid back on the pot and set to sealing.
Cancel the Sautรฉ mode and set to Manual for 6 mins.
When cooking cycle ends, let it do a 5 minute Natural Release, then do a Quick Release of the remaining pressure, and when the pin drops, open the lid.
Stir well and serve.
Recipe Notes
The noodles will be al dente.
