Description

A rich and savory Instant Pot soup made with fresh mushrooms, ready in under 30 minutes.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1.5 pounds fresh mushrooms, sliced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 0.5 cup sherry
  • 1.5 teaspoons dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon salt, or more to taste
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper, or more to taste
  • 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Melt butter in the Instant Pot set to the Sauté function. Add onion and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add mushrooms and sauté until starting to soften, 2 to 3 minutes; cancel the Sauté function.
  2. Stir in chicken broth, sherry, thyme, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Close and lock the lid; select the Manual function and set the timer for 5 minutes.
  3. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build. Release the pressure using the natural-release method for about 10 minutes, then use quick-release for remaining pressure.
  4. Select the Sauté function again and bring soup to a light simmer.
  5. Whisk flour into heavy cream in a small bowl; slowly pour into simmering soup, whisking constantly until thickened, about 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper if needed.

Notes

For a lighter version, replace half the cream with plain Greek yogurt or use lower-fat milk with a roux.
