Star-shaped noodle chicken soup from the pressure cooker

Ingredients for 2 servings:

• 2 chicken breasts
• 2 liters of water
• ½ stalk(s) leek, depending on size
• 2 m.-large carrot(s)
• ¼ bulb(s) celeriac
• 1 small onion(s)
• 1 bratwurst, depending on size
• 100 g soup noodles (star-shaped noodles)
• salt and pepper
• some oil

Instructions

Working time approx. 25 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 55 minutes

with meatballs

Boil the chicken breasts in plenty of salted water until tender. I always bring them to a boil in a pressure cooker once. In the meantime, clean and chop the vegetables. Remove the meat from the water, drain it, and skim off any foam. Heat the oil in the pressure cooker and sauté the onion until translucent. Then gradually add the vegetables to the pot and sauté briefly. Then pour the meat water (1-1.5 l) over the vegetables until tender (if desired). Shortly before the end of the cooking time, form the sausages into small meatballs and simmer in the boiling broth. Add the noodles and simmer until tender. Season with salt and pepper. Note: I like to use one extra chicken breast and use the excess salted water and the extra chicken breast as a base for a chicken fricassee the next day.
