Why this works

The easiest soup of the week, and a great home for leftover chicken. Cooked chicken, frozen kale and onion get five minutes at pressure with garlic and a hint of cinnamon and cloves, then coconut milk makes it creamy. It's from our soup-for-every-cold-night post.

Leftover roast chicken or a store-bought rotisserie chicken both work here.

Method

01
Put the chicken, kale, onion, water, broth base, cinnamon, cloves, garlic, pepper and salt in the Instant Pot.
02
Lock the lid, select Manual and cook at High pressure for 5 minutes. Let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes, then release the rest.
03
Stir in the coconut milk, taste, adjust the seasoning and serve.

Good to know

Plan for the release. The cooking is 5 minutes, but the pot takes time to come up to pressure and 10 minutes to release.

About the photo. It shows sliced grilled chicken. Any cooked chicken works.

Questions

Before you start

Can I use fresh kale?

Yes. Remove the stems and chop it first.

Does it taste of cinnamon?

Only slightly. It adds warmth more than flavor.
