You’ll find that making this creamy chicken soup in the Instant Pot is fun and easy. You can also make it on the stove top though, if you prefer.
 IngredientsThere are only a few ingredients in this chicken soup and most of them are probably in your pantry right now. If you want to get creative, try adding different vegetables. Corn or green beans would work. If you have any leftover pasta or rice, you can add that at the end as well. Tortellini would be perfect. Add the whole chicken breasts to the Instant Pot to cook before shredding. If you don’t have an Instant Pot, have a look at this 6-Quart Instant Pot (aff link) which we use. We’ve had it for several years and it still works great. What Can I Substitute for Half and Half?If you don’t have any half and half, you can still use other ingredients to make your soup creamy. Use whipping cream (heavy cream). Mix together milk and whipping cream. Use milk and sour cream. You can even add shredded cheese. Is This Soup Gluten Free?Because I’ve used all purpose flour to thicken the soup, it’s not gluten free. But, you can substitute other things to make it gluten free. Note that the Better Than Bouillon is not certified gluten free either. It’s optional and you don’t need to use it. What Can I Use to Thicken My Soup?To thicken your soup, corn starch is a good alternative to flour. And, it’s gluten free! Instead of 4 tablespoons of flour, use 2 tablespoons of corn starch. In a pinch, stir in potato flakes, about ¼ cup at a time, instead of using flour or corn starch. It will thicken and add yummy potato flavor as well. Whisk together the flour and stock separately to thicken the soup. Can I Use Leftover Chicken?Use leftover chicken, if you like. You could use a rotisserie chicken as well. You’ll need about 2 ½ to 3 cups of shredded chicken. If you want to use pre-cooked chicken, shred or chop it first. You can reduce your manual cook time to about 5 minutes, just to make sure the carrots cook through. What If My Chicken is Frozen?If your chicken is frozen, add it to your soup at the same time as stated in the instructions. Increase the pressure cook time to 20 minutes. These “claws” work perfectly to shred the chicken quickly. Do I Have to Use An Instant Pot?You can easily make your creamy chicken soup on the stove top as well. You don’t absolutely have to have an Instant Pot. Saute your vegetables in olive oil and continue with the same instructions. Cover and cook the chicken then remove it for shredding. Add it back and stir in the half and half. So easy! More Soup RecipesBecause soup is so amazing, you’ll want to enjoy it often. I love it too and I have lots of great recipes.

Can you put soup in pressure cooker?Cooking soup in your pressure cooker is a game changer!

How long does it take to cook chicken breast in Instant Pot?Pressure cook on high for 8-10 minutes for fresh chicken breast, or 10-12 minutes for frozen chicken (depending on the thickness of the breasts).
