Instant Pot Chicken & Noodles

Instant Pot Chicken & Noodles All the ingredients you'll need aside from the chicken.

Chicken Noodle Soup

Chicken Noodle Soup To Start out I Cooked a whole chicken in the Instant Pot. If you wanted to skip this step to make it a little easier you could easily buy a rotisserie chicken. Put one cup of water in the bottom. Add chicken breast side up. These are the spices I put on the chicken, you can basically use whatever and however much you'd like. Then set the instant pot to 60 minutes and let natural release.  Once the instant pot hits natural release start sautéing the carrots, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in pot. Add Carrots - You can also add onions and celery at this time if you choose. Add spices. These are the spices I used on the carrots and in the soup. Once chicken is done remove from instant pot and set on plate.  shred chicken. Once the carrots are sautéed, add chicken to pot. Add noodles, broth, and spices, then stir.  Bring to boil, then reduce to simmer for 20 minutes

I had my second Remicade Infusion on Monday afternoon so Joe left work early to take me to my appointment. The whole process usually takes 3 hours - 2 1/2 hours of the infusion and 1/2 hour of observati
