Recipe Notes

Alternate Instant Pot Method: Assemble soup ingredients in instant pot and set to manual high pressure for 10 minutes. While it’s cooking, proceed with cooking the chicken sausage stovetop.

The chicken “sausage” recipe is the same as the one used in the Chicken Sausage and Fennel Soup! Simply make a double batch when you cook the sausage and you’ll be able to make both recipes.
