Directions
- Setting Up – Set your Instant Pot to the Sauté mode and heat the olive oil. Add the onion, carrots, and celery and sauté until they begin to soften (about 5-7 minutes).
- Adding Flavors – Stir in the garlic and thyme; cook until aromatic (about 1 minute). If using bay leaves, add them now along with the turkey chunks seasoned with salt and pepper.
- Cooking – Pour in the chicken broth and water. Seal the Instant Pot lid and switch to the Soup mode for 7 minutes.
- Finishing Steps – Once done, allow natural release for about 5 minutes then manually release any remaining steam. Open the lid safely, remove the turkey to shred it, then return it to the pot with the egg noodles. Set to Sauté mode again and cook until noodles are tender (about 4-6 minutes).
- Final Touches – Turn off the device and if desired, stir in red pepper flakes and lemon juice. Serve garnished with fresh parsley and additional black pepper.
