4 bone-in chicken thighs, skin removed
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 medium carrots, peeled, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
1-1/2 celery ribs, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
6 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
1/2 package (8 ounces) uncooked fine egg noodles, cooked
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
Chopped fresh parsley, optional

Directions

Select saute setting on a 3- or 6-qt. electric pressure cooker and adjust for normal heat; add oil. Brown the chicken thighs. Add carrots, celery and broth into pressure cooker. Lock lid; close pressure-release valve. Adjust to pressure-cook on high for 10 minutes. Allow pressure to naturally release for 10 minutes, then quick-release any remaining pressure.
Stir in salt and pepper. Evenly divide noodles among serving bowls; top with 1 chicken thigh and top with broth. If desired, sprinkle with parsley.
