Ingredients
  

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed

1 medium onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

3 medium carrots, sliced

2 ribs celery, diced

1 cup frozen peas

4 cups chicken broth

1 cup heavy cream

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon dried rosemary

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/4 cup all-purpose flour (optional, for thickening)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

2 tablespoons olive oil or butter

Instructions
 

Sauté the Vegetables: Turn the Instant Pot to the Sauté function. Add olive oil or butter, then add the diced onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes or until the vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally. Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional minute until fragrant.

    Add Chicken and Seasoning: Add the cubed chicken to the pot along with the dried thyme, rosemary, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine the ingredients well.

      Pour in Chicken Broth: Add the chicken broth to the pot and give everything a good stir, making sure to scrape the bottom to release any stuck bits. This will prevent the burn warning during cooking.

        Pressure Cook: Close the lid of the Instant Pot, ensuring the valve is set to sealing. Set to Manual or Pressure Cook on high for 10 minutes.

          Release the Pressure: Once the cooking time is complete, allow the pot to naturally release pressure for 5 minutes, then do a quick release to let out any remaining steam.

            Add Cream and Peas: Open the Instant Pot and stir in the heavy cream and frozen peas. If you prefer a thicker soup, mix the all-purpose flour with a bit of water to create a slurry and add it to the soup, stirring continuously until it thickens slightly. Allow it to simmer for another 5 minutes on the Sauté mode to heat through.

              Serve: Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
