    This was better (and much faster) than my almost all day chicken soup. THANKS so much for this recipe. The Instant Pot has been my friend for almost 4 years and enjoy discovering new recipes.

  2. Finula says:

    Just delicious, unfortunately used wrong noodles which expanded in the heat but was able to remove them and was left with a perfect chicken soup in my regular saucepan.Next time I will use egg noodles as recipe suggests, I have learned my lesson. Thanks for grea5 recipes.

  3. Bertha Glen says:

    Nice recipe but I'd suggest if u want it to taste like the soup made by generations of grammas add a pigs foot, use cheap cuts of skin covered chicken with bones and add bay leaves in and the chicken broth and do the first cooking. Then strain and use this stronger tasting broth and follow the six sisters instructions to make ur soupIt's nice to have the instant pot and these excellent recipes to make an old fashion soup that used to take 12 hours to cook

  11. Cyd says:

  12. Chris says:

    This is the 3rd recipe I've tried from SSS since Kristen's YT videos convinced me to purchase an IP 2 weeks ago. First time cooking this recipe and it turned out "ok" - the egg noodles came out quite soggy/mushy. Would this be from cooking to long? I cooked the raw chicken / broth for 15 minutes, quick released and put noodles, spices, and veggies in for 5 minutes. I didn't hear the timer and left it in for an extra 6 minutes before i quick released. Would that affect the noodles? Thank you SSS for the great recipes!

  13. Cyd says:

    This needed a quick release after 5 minutes. So your noodles were mushy from cooking that extra 6 minutes.

  14. Josie says:

    Like what I read

  15. Kathy Savage says:

    I would like to start getting your recipes. I have just got an instant pot and feel I am not using it enough. Thank you for your time.

  16. Cyd says:

    Be sure to watch our You Tube videos. We do a new recipe every week. Most of them right now are Instant Pot recipes, or freezer meals that work in the instant pot.

  17. Courtney Pies says:

    I made this yesterday and it was absolutely delicious! I'm so excited to try more of your Instant Pot recipes and to get your cookbook in the mail!

  18. Shawna K says:

    I have taught all my kids to cook and it has served them so well, now I'm down to my last little guy and he is just starting. He choose chicken noodle soup so I searched up this recipe so he would have one to follow, rather than making by memory. He had a great time peeling the carrots, chopping the celery and stirring. We used canned chicken for ease and he chopped it up into small bit too. I used Knor chicken bullion instead of broth, so he was able to measure the water and then the granules as well. Thanks for helping making cooking so easy!!

  19. Momma Cyd says:

    We love this! You are doing great things teaching your kids how to cook!!

  20. Amanda says:

    Easy and quick recipe to make. The taste was very bland and the noodles soaked up too much of the broth so I suggest not using as many noodles or add more broth.
