- 32 oz chicken stock
- 2 cubes chicken bouillon
- 2 heaping cups chopped carrots
- 2 cups chopped celery
- ½ medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 (10 oz) cans of cream of chicken soup
- ¾ cup evaporated milk
- 1 pound chicken tenders
- 12 oz package egg noodles
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cups frozen peas
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Add chicken stock and bouillon cubes to the pressure cooker pot. Using the saute or simmer function, simmer until the cubes are dissolved. Add carrots, celery, onion, and chicken tenders; stir. Cook at high pressure for 5 minutes.
- Fill a large pot with water and add 2-3 large pinches of salt. On a stove top, bring the water to a boil; add pasta and cook to package directions. When tender, drain the pasta and toss with 1 tablespoon of oil to prevent the pasta from sticking. Set aside.
- When pressure cooking is complete, use a natural release for 5 minutes and then release any remaining pressure. If liquid sprays from the valve, turn knob back to a sealed position and wait another 5 minutes before opening again.
- Remove chicken and shred or chop into bite size pieces. Return to pot
- Stir in peas, cream of chicken soup, evaporated milk and add salt and pepper to taste. Using the saute or simmer function, simmer until the soup is the desired temperature.
- To serve, ladle soup into bowls and add desired amount of noodles.
- Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 5 days, or in the freezer for 2 months or so. Keep noodles separated from the soup during storage.
