Instant Pot Chicken Rice Soup

Hello everyone,

It was time to pull out my Instant Pot and prepare my Instant Pot Chicken Rice soup.  Everyone craves Chicken soup when the temperature drops isn’t that correct?  Not only when the temperatures drop but also Chicken soup helps when you’re feeling down with the flu. I believe that homemade soup does boost the immune system,  and we all know that Chicken soup fights against infections. A bowl of chicken soup does the trick, but here’s my question do you like your Chicken soup plain or with a little something extra in it?

Back to the recipe,  I started by boiling the chicken breasts first and then moved on to the rest of the preparation chopping, dicing, etc.  I was able to find organic carrots in the market the other day and I was quite surprised.  Organic carrots are difficult to find in my local market.  (I seriously don’t know why this is)

I shredded the chicken breasts into small and medium size pieces, because when I’ve shredded the chicken into small pieces they disappear within the soup.  Everyone prefers a bit larger pieces and that’s what I did this time.   I always shred the chicken breasts and add the chicken to the instant pot.  I added two pieces of bay leaves to the soup and I used arborio rice (risotto rice) to prepare this Chicken and Rice soup.  For the broth you can use whichever you prefer, I used Chicken broth for this soup.

This weather has gone completely insane. Over the weekend, it was very cold, and then it started to rain at the beginning of the week. Today, we are again walking around in T-shirts and some people are even wearing shorts because it’s quite warm. Last night, after walking my puppies, I returned home and was sweating as if I were on a tropical island. We are living in climate change, which makes absolutely no sense for this country.

This Instant Pot Chicken and Rice Soup took 15 minutes to cook. 🙂

Wishing everyone a wonderful morning/afternoon/evening.
