Whole30 Instant Pot Turmeric Tahini Chicken Soup
Description
This Instant Pot soup recipe combines diced onion, thinly sliced carrots, fresh ginger, turmeric, ground coriander, cinnamon, and salt with chicken stock and a boneless skinless chicken breast. Cooking under high pressure for 15 minutes cooks the chicken quickly while infusing the broth with warm spices and vegetable flavors. After cooking, the chicken is shredded and part of the soup is pureed to give a thicker body and creamy texture, enhancing mouthfeel without cream.
The addition of coconut milk and tahini adds a subtle richness and nutty depth while keeping the dish dairy-free. Stirring in baby spinach at the end wilts the greens gently to preserve color and texture, contributing freshness and nutrients. Adjusting salt after blending ensures balanced seasoning.
This soup is suited for a comforting meal that combines warm spices and creamy elements, with tender chicken and vegetables. Its preparation in a pressure cooker makes it convenient and accessible while allowing layers of flavor to develop efficiently.
