Instant pot chicken and wild rice soup

This is a quick, flavorful and creamy soup to make for the cooler temperatures. I make use of a Lemon Pepper seasoned rotisserie chicken, and simply add the chicken at the end of the cooking time.

Gather the ingredients.

Saute onions in butter and then add chicken broth, scraping the bottom of the pot.

Add carrots, celery, rice and the seasoning packet. Stir well. Cover and set valve to sealing, set to SOUP for 10 minutes. When time is up, let sit for 5 minutes, then vent for quicker release.

Measure half-and-half into glass measuring cup, and whisk in flour a little bit at time. Then add some of the hot soup into the half-and-half and flour mixture to temper the cold liquid. Add the half-and-half mixture to the Instant Pot. If needed, turn the pot back to the saute setting to thicken the soup. Add the chicken and stir well.
