Instant Pot Cheesy Chicken Gnocchi Soup - Gluten Free

1

Cut chicken breast into approximately 1 inch chunks.

2

Set Instant Pot to Saute Less for 7 minutes and add olive oil to the Pot. Add the chicken breast chunks.

3

Leave chicken to cook, stirring occasionally, until Instant Pot turns off. The chicken will still be slightly pink.

4

Add some chicken broth to the Pot. Scrape the bottom of Pot to remove any brown bits.

5

Add some water to the Pot followed by some gluten free gnocchi. Sprinkle it out evenly but do not stir.

6

Add some almond milk, salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder to the Pot. Do not stir!

7

Place lid on Instant Pot, turn steam release handle to sealing position and set Pot to Pressure Cook High for 3 minutes.

8

When Pot is done cooking, immediately turn steam release handle to the venting position and do a quick release. Remove the lid.

9

Add some frozen peas to the Pot and stir the contents well.

10

Leave soup to sit for a few minutes to allow peas to cook. At this time you can make a slurry with corn starch and water if you want thicker soup. Turn the saute function back on.

11

Then add some shredded mozzarella cheese and bacon bits to the Pot. Stir until the cheese is melted.

12

Serve.
