Instant Pot Garlic Parmesan Sausage Chowder

A colorful and flavorful summer chowder with garlic, smoked sausage, parmesan cheese, corn, potatoes, green beans and carrots. Your whole family will love this soup!





INGREDIENTS

  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 1 pound mini colorful potatoes (see note)
  • 1 (12 oz) package of smoked sausage, sliced thinly (I used smoked chicken sausage)
  • 1 rib of celery, diced
  • 1 cup diced onion
  • 8 oz baby carrots (or you can cut 3–4 large carrots)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • ½ tsp dried thyme
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 cup frozen corn or 1 can of corn, drained
  • 1 (14 oz) can green beans, drained
  • ⅔ cup half and half (you can also use milk or cream)
  • 4 Tbsp cornstarch
  • ½ cup shredded parmesan cheese



INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Add broth, potatoes, sausage, celery, onion, carrots, garlic powder, parsley, thyme, pepper, salt and corn to the Instant Pot. 
  2. Cover and secure the lid. Make sure the valve is set to sealing. Set the manual/pressure cook button to 3 minutes. Let the pot sit for 5 minutes and then move the valve to venting. Remove the lid.
  3. Stir in the green beans. In a small bowl stir together the half and half and the cornstarch together until very smooth. Stir a few tablespoons of hot soup into the mixture. This will help prevent curdling. Then add the mixture into the Instant Pot. Turn the Instant Pot to the saute setting. In a few minutes your soup will thicken a bit.
  4. Unplug the pot and then add in the parmesan cheese. Salt and pepper to taste. Serve the chowder and enjoy!
