Helpful Tips for making Instant Pot Chicken Wild Rice Mushroom Soup

  • You can use skinless boneless chicken thighs in place of the boneless chicken breasts.
  • I used baby Portabellas mushrooms but you could, of course, use any sliced mushrooms.
  • I like to add cornstarch as a thickener for most of my soup recipes. It adds a little thickness to the soup broth. If you enjoy a clear soup broth you can skip that step.

      Hi Diane
      I have not cooked regular rice in the Instant Pot because it is so easy to over cook. If you'd like to use brown or white rice I would suggest cooking the rice on the stove and adding the cooked rice to the soup after it has presser cooked. Wild rice is much firmer so it cooks very well in the IP. Thanks!
