Instructions
- Press the "Saute" button. Add the chopped bacon. Cook for 3 - 5 minutes. Stir with a long-handled spoon or spatula the whole time to keep the bacon from sticking to the bottom of the Instant Pot.
- Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, chopped celery, and diced carrots.
- Cook the vegetables for about 5 minutes until the onion is soft and the vegetables are slightly softened. Stir frequently.
- Pour in the chicken broth (or vegetable broth or water).
- Add the rinsed dried split peas to the Instant Pot. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and dried thyme, and add the bay leaves.
- Close and lock the lid. Move the seal to the "Sealing" position.
- Press Cancel to cancel the Saute mode, then press "Pressure Cook" and set the Pressure level to High Pressure, and change the time to 15 minutes. (It will take a few minutes for the Instant Pot to come up to the pressure level before it starts to cook.)
- After it has finished cooking for 15 minutes, let the Instant Pot release pressure naturally for about 10 minutes and then do a quick release by moving the seal to the venting position. This will release any remaining pressure.
- After the pressure is released and the pin has dropped, remove the lid and remove the 2 bay leaves. Stir the split pea soup.
- Ladle the split pea soup into soup bowls. Garnish with chopped cilantro, parsley, or green onions. Enjoy!
