Notes
To use fresh chicken breasts:
Follow Step 1 and then without adding the noodles, add the remaining ingredients (including 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts) to the Instant Pot and cook for 8 minutes with a 10 minute natural release.
When the pressure is released, remove the chicken from the pot and shred with two forks. Set pot to Sauté and let soup come to a boil. Add the noodles and cook for 5 to 7 minutes until they have cooked through. Return the shredded chicken to the pot and stir to combine.
To use fresh herbs instead of dried, increase to 1 tablespoon each.
