Aroma Rice Cooker Soup Instructions

1. In the inner pot of your cooker, combine chopped cooked chicken (if using), condensed chicken soup, chicken broth, milk, chopped celery, onion, carrots, ranch dressing mix, and softened cream cheese. Stir well to combine.
2. Close the lid of the cooker and set it to the Steam function for 30 minutes.
3. Once the contents start boiling, open the lid and give the mixture a good stir.
4. Cook with the lid open for an additional 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Maintain a rolling simmer; if the soup stops bubbling, gently lower the lid without locking it.
5. When there are 10 minutes left, add the broken angel hair pasta and shredded cheddar cheese. Stir well and continue cooking with the lid open, stirring frequently.
6. When the multicooker switches to Keep Warm, the noodles will be cooked, and the soup is ready. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
7. If the soup is too thick, add more broth to reach your desired consistency.
8. Serve the soup in bowls and enjoy!

Recipe Tips

• Enhance flavor with sautéed aromatics: Before adding them to the cooker, sauté the celery, onion, and carrots in a bit of olive oil or butter until softened. This step helps release their natural sweetness and adds depth to the soup’s flavor profile.
• Customize with your favorite veggies: Feel free to add or substitute vegetables based on your preferences or what you have on hand. Broccoli, bell peppers, or even frozen peas can be delightful additions to this versatile soup.
• Boost creaminess with coconut milk: For a dairy-free option, swap out the milk and cream cheese for coconut milk. Not only does it add richness, but it also imparts a subtle tropical flavor that complements the other ingredients beautifully.

How To Store Aroma Rice Cooker Soup

Refrigerate: Allow the Aroma Rice Cooker Soup to cool completely. Then, transfer it to an airtight container or cover the inner pot with plastic wrap. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.

Freeze: For longer-term storage, freeze the soup. Ladle it into freezer-safe containers or freezer bags, leaving some space for expansion. Seal tightly and label with the date. The soup can be frozen for up to 2-3 months. To enjoy, thaw it overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.

How To Reheat Leftover Aroma Rice Cooker Soup

In The Microwave: Transfer a portion of the soup to a microwave-safe dish and cover it loosely with a microwave-safe lid or microwave-safe plastic wrap. Heat on high for 2-3 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even warming.

On The Stove: Pour the desired amount of soup into a saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the soup is warmed through. Be careful not to let it boil.

In The Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Transfer the leftover soup to an oven-safe dish and cover it with aluminum foil. Reheat for about 15-20 minutes, or until it is hot all the way through.

What To Serve Aroma Rice Cooker Soup

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use raw chicken instead of cooked chicken?

Yes, you can. If using raw chicken, make sure to cook it thoroughly in the soup before serving. You may need to adjust the cooking time accordingly.

Can I substitute the angel hair pasta with a different type of pasta?

Absolutely! Feel free to use your favorite type of pasta or whatever you have on hand. Just keep in mind that cooking times may vary depending on the pasta shape and size.

Is it necessary to use both condensed chicken soup and chicken broth?

Using both condensed chicken soup and chicken broth provides a richer flavor and texture to the soup. However, if you prefer, you can use all chicken broth or all condensed soup, adjusting the seasoning to taste.
