We found this recipe at RealSimpleGood and loved the use of chicken thighs and other simple ingredients we almost always have at home.
This simple and delicious soup can be made in either an Instant Pot or traditional slow cooker. Using an Instant Pot it can be ready to eat and on the table in less than 30 minutes... how great is that!
