Instant Pot Chicken and White Bean Soup

olive oil

onion,

celery stalk, chopped

4-6 garlic cloves, rough chopped

bay leaf (optional)

beans

boneless, skinless chicken, breast

chicken stock

salt

crack pepper

lemon

parsley,

Turn the Instant Pot on, to the saute function and add the oil, onion, celery, and fresh garlic, and sauté 5 minutes until fragrant and tender.

Add the remaining ingredients (except the lemon) &#8211; herbs, bay, beans, chicken breasts or thighs (leave whole), chicken stock or broth, salt and pepper. Give a good stir and set the pressure cooker to 30 minutes on high pressure. (***If using larger beans like cannellini, lima, corona, or fava, increase time by 10-15  minutes.)

Let the pressure release (either naturally, or let it out manually) and pull the chicken meat apart using two forks, shredding. Give a good stir, taste, adjusting salt and pepper, and add a squeeze of lemon.

Serve with fresh chopped Italian parsley, and for added richness sour cream or avocado.

I made this today in my IP, it is delicious!  I used Great Northern beans and 1lb of Chicken tenders.  I added 1 heaping Tablespoon of fresh rosemary and Pacific brand chicken stock. I didn't even garnish it and it was fabulous. An instant family favorite! I can imagine it would be great with the addition of torn Kale as one reviewer suggested. The only way it could have tasted better today was if I had eaten it from a mug that was wearing a sweater (as shown above).  Thank you for a great recipe!

Just made it- it's delightful, and sooooo easy.

Wow this was really good! I used a bunch of leeks and 3 stalks of celery with canned butter beans. At 9min cook time the chicken was tender and delicious! Thank you for taking the time to share your recipes!

Absolutely delicious this soup. I don't like celery so I subbed them for leeks and it was brill

I used chicken legs and thighs on the bones for a super tasty stock and canned cannelloni beans. Thanks for the recipe.

I think this may be  my new favorite winter time soup.  This is the second time I made it in my 8 qt instant pot.  The first time I thought it was a bit heavy on the chicken (I used two breasts but didn't weigh them, so maybe my fault, but it was the ones you get at Costco where you buy a bunch of them and they are individually wrapped in heavy plastic, ready for the freezer.  So today I used the same amount of chicken but doubled the recipe for the rest of the ingredients and it is perfect!  I do add a healthy spoonful of light sour cream at the end.  Oh, and I used the dried rosemary, and a bit less oil, but otherwise followed the recipe.  Sooo good! And quite WW friendly also, as long as you use chicken breast and not the thigh.  Thank you for this recipe!

I'd make it again but I'd quarter the rosemary. It was too strong for me at 1Tb dried.

Made on the stovetop with canned beans and leftover rotisserie chicken. Blended sage, rosemary and thyme for the seasoning. Loved how the lemon brightened all the flavors.  It was very good and was a hit with my husband!

This is one of the best receipes i ever tried, thank you for it!!! I added a baggie of red peper flakes in the beginning of the cooking process, while sauteing, not in the end, that was my only alteration

Chicken & White Bean Soup | Video 

Smoky Tomato White Bean Soup made with dry beans in an instant pot or on the stovetop. Vegan and gluten-free.

Smoky Tomato White Bean Soup 

lb dry white beans, soaked 8-12 hours

onion, diced

garlic cloves, rough chopped

carrots, chopped

celery chopped

fresh thyme (or 1 teaspoon dried thyme)

white wine (or skip it)

tomatoes,

bell

veggie broth or chicken stock

smoked paprika

cumin

pepper

cayenne

bay leaves

lemon juice vinegar

harissa paste

Soak the cannellini beans in 3 times the water for 8-12 hours.

Set Instant Pot to Saute function. (See notes for stovetop version)

Heat oil and saute onions 5 minutes. Add garlic, stir for 2 minutes.

Add carrots, celery and thyme, give a good stir. Deglaze with wine and scrape up any brown bits.

Add tomatoes, roasted peppers, drained white beans, broth or stock, salt, smoked paprika, cumin, pepper, cayenne and bay leaves. Give a good stir.

Set Instant pot to High Pressure for 12 minutes.

I made this today using rinsed canned white beans.  I also used roasted canned tomatoes.  Delicious!  Wish I could post a photo.

I made this recipe using the stovetop version and I used orca beans instead of white cannelli beans.  I only printed out the stove top version and I realized that adding the beans to the pot was omitted.  I think  it is better to use the 2 cups dry beans measure than the 1lb measurement.  A whole pound of dry beans makes lots and lots and lots of beans.  I precooked my beans for 25 minutes since I like them creamy not "al dente" and I froze 4 cups of partially cooked beans for later  Delicious recipe.  I love the smoked paprika flavor and Harissa oil at the end.

This was very tasty - I used 3 x tins of rinsed white beans, and only 4 cups of stock - the harissa oil is such a lovely delicious defining addition. We are now looking forward to yummy leftovers.

I'm eating this soup right now, and it is fantastic! The harissa oil &amp; garlic bread make it pop! Definitely my new comfort food.

This is so flavorful! Used my Mayocoba beans, which really hold their shape, yet are creamy and meaty. The soup was brothier that I'd expected from the pictures, but we certainly weren't mad about it. Everyone wanted more. My husband, on his second helping said, wait...there's no meat in it?! The soup will definitely go into our rotation. That's for another winner!

Made last night for dinner with cannellini, white northern, and pinto beans (all I had on hand) - so so good!

This was absolutely delicious! I made it for my family for dinner and there were fights over the leftovers. One son told me it was the best soup I’ve ever made, and another asked me to make it every week. I used dried navy beans, as that’s what I had on hand, but next time I’ll use cannellini beans. I made the recipe as written, however, I added some Spanish chorizo along with the broth before pressure cooking. The smokiness of the chorizo was perfect with the smoked paprika. I am gently trying to nudge my family to eat more vegetarian meals, and I’ve found that sometimes adding in a small bit of meat makes the transition easier and less noticeable.

This is so delicious! I didn't make any changes to the recipe - it was perfect on the stovetop! It's so warming and on a rainy day like today, it's exactly what I felt like. Next time I'll try it with tinned beans as that would make it a very speedy meal.

White Bean Stew from Scratch

white beans dry

leek onion

carrot (chopped)

celery (chopped)

garlic (chopped)

rosemary

sage

water or vegetable stock

1.5 tsp smoked applewood sea salt

bread garlic

-2 Tbsp Nutritional yeast (optional)

Rinse and pick the beans then cover them with water and soak for 6 hours or overnight. Drain.

In a large heavy bottom pot heat up a good lug of olive oil (or veggie broth for WFPB) and saute the leek (or onion) with the carrot and celery until they begin to soften.

Quickly stir in the chopped garlic and cook for a few seconds just until fragrant then add the soaked beans.

Pour in the water and bring to a constant simmer. Add the bay, sage and rosemary, cover with a lid and cook for 45 minutes or until the beans are soft and tender to your liking.

Check the beans half way through cooking and see if you might need to add extra water if they are absorbing lots of liquid.

Once your beans are perfectly cooked remove from heat, stir in the nutritional yeast and season to taste with the smoked sea salt.

OPTIONAL but Recommended: Meanwhile grill or toast the bread on both sides until nice dark char marks form. Rub each slice on both sides with a garlic clove, lightly brush with some olive oil and finish with sea salt.

Ladle the bean stew into bowls and tear chunks of the garlic bruschetta over the top. Finish with a light drizzle of olive oil on top and enjoy.

To make this recipe WFPB + Plantricious compliant make sure to omit the oil and saute the veggies in water or veggie broth instead.
