Ingredients

Sauté in the Instant Pot

  • 1 tablespoon garlic-infused olive oil
  • 2 medium-sized carrots peeled & diced
  • 1 celery stalk diced
  • 1 cup leek green part only, chopped

Remaining Soup Ingredients

  • 3-4 Yukon gold potatoes peeled & cut into 1" pieces
  • 4-5 boneless, skinless chicken thighs cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 4 cups Low FODMAP chicken broth
  • 1-1/2 cups water

Herbs & Spices

  • 2 bay leaves
  • 2 slices of ginger optional
  • 3/4 teaspoon turmeric optional
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary

Last Ingredients

  • 1 cup chopped green onion
  • 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • ground pepper to taste
  • extra garlic-infused olive oil optional

Instructions

  • Set Instant Pot on Sauté mode and heat garlic-infused olive oil. Once hot, add carrots, celery & leek and cook for 2-3 minutes, until leek is slightly wilted.
  • Turn off Sauté mode. Add potatoes, chicken breast, chicken broth, water and herbs and spices (bay leaves, ginger, turmeric, dried basil, parsley, oregano, thyme and rosemary). Make sure the steam release handle is set to the sealed position, and select the Soup mode. It will take about 15-20 minutes for the IP to get to pressure, and then 30 minutes of cook time.
  • Once 30 minutes are up, carefully do a Quick Release. Remove the bay leaves. Add green onion, salt, pepper, and extra garlic-infused olive oil for extra flavor if using. Adjust for additional salt and pepper to meet your preferences.

Notes

  1. If you're using a store-bought garlic oil, be sure that it is actually FODMAP-friendly. The manufacturing process for oils is not always disclosed, meaning potentially high FODMAP ingredients could still make its way into the final product. My favorite Low FODMAP garlic oil is by Garlic Gold, which I purchase off of Amazon in bulk.
