7 frozen chicken tenderloins
8 slices bacon
1 onion (diced)
4 potatoes (diced)
3 cups chicken broth
2 cups corn
1 can creamed corn
3 cups half and half
1 cup celery (diced)
3 tbsp butter
1 tsp garlic (minced)
1/2 tsp seasoned salt
salt
ground pepper
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp fresh flat leaf parsley (chopped)
2 tbsp cornstarch
Directions
- Add olive oil to the Instant Pot. Set to Saute. Add onion and celery (and bacon if not using pre-cooked) and saute until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic, and saute for 1 minute.
- Add chicken broth, potatoes, and corn. Lay the frozen chicken tenderloins on top of the ingredients, resting them on top so they are mostly out of the liquid.
- Set to Pressure Cook for 13 minutes. At the end of the cooking time, manually release the pressure. Take the chicken out, and dice, then return to the pot.
- Stir in the half and half, and the seasoned salt, and add salt and pepper to taste. If thickening is desired, make a slurry of the cornstarch and 2 tbsp. water in a small bowl, and stir into the soup, setting the Instant Pot to Saute for 3-5 minutes, or until thickened.
- Add the butter (optional) and stir until melted.
- Garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve.
- have used frozen corn, but canned corn can be used instead.
- NOTE:
- Feel free to substitute milk for the half and half, but additional cornstarch may be needed to thicken the chowder.
