Notes
Deglaze the pot after sautéing to avoid burn errors. For extra tenderness, use boneless skinless chicken thighs. To prevent mushy vegetables, layer them on top of the noodles. Perform a quick release immediately after the cycle to avoid overcooking pasta. To freeze: combine mixed veggies, cubed chicken, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and broth in a freezer bag. Cook on high pressure for 15 minutes, quick release, add noodles, cook on high pressure for 4 minutes, quick release, and stir in cream.
