Instant Pot Bean and Sausage Soup
Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 pound Italian-style chicken sausage, casings removed
  • 1 1/2 cups diced onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (15 ounce) can white kidney beans (cannellini), rinsed and drained
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 (32 ounce) carton Swanson® Chicken Broth (4 cups)
  • 3 cups finely chopped kale leaves
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
1
To begin, preheat your 6-quart Instant Pot to the Saute function.
2
Heat a generous amount of oil in the pot until it reaches a suitable temperature for browning.
3
Next, add the sausage to the pot and cook over medium-high heat for 10 minutes or until it reaches a rich, dark brown color. It's essential to stir the sausage frequently to prevent clumping and promote even browning.
4
Once you've achieved your desired level of browning, press the Cancel button to pause the cooking process.
5
Now it's time to add the onion, garlic, beans, Italian seasoning, and Swanson Chicken Broth to the pot. Combine these ingredients in a harmonious blend that will form the foundation of your dish.
6
Close the lid and ensure the pressure release valve is securely in place.
7
Proceed to cook your ingredients under high pressure for 3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. The timer will begin counting down once the pressure is reached, and you can expect it to take around 10 minutes for the entire process.
8
Once the cooking time has elapsed, press Cancel and utilize the quick-release method to release the pressure from the Instant Pot.
9
Subsequently, stir in a handful of kale and allow it to sit for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to integrate with the dish.
10
Finally, season your dish to taste and sprinkle a generous amount of cheese on top.
