Step 1

Saute until the onions are translucent.

Step 3

Add chicken broth and cubed chicken. (I cut my chicken in big cubes.)

Turn Instant Pot to saute.

Step 8

Remove chicken and using two forks shred in big chunks then return chicken to Instant Pot.

Sprinkle xanthan gum on top to thicken the soup and turn Instant Pot to warm.
