Introduction

Lemon and Kale give a fresh and light flavor to this classic chicken and rice soup. The soup cooks low and slow in the crock pot or lightning quick in your Instant Pot! I've included instructions for both below. Lemon and Kale give a fresh and light flavor to this classic chicken and rice soup.

Instant Pot: Turn instant Pot to "sauté" function. Add Olive oil, chopped onions, chopped carrots and chopped celery. Cook until softened or about 5 minutes. While veggies are sautéing remove Kale from the stems and chop into small bites or strips. Using a zester, remove the zest from 2 lemons. After zesting, juice one lemon and set aside about 2 teaspoons lemon juice and the lemon zest. Add remaining ingredients to the Instant Pot. This includes rice, Lemon juice and zest, seasonings, chicken stock, cooked or raw chicken and Kale. Stir together and cover with the lid. Lock the lid into place and use the High Pressure setting for 10 minutes. Use quick release and serve. Slow Cooker: Add all ingredients and cook on Low Setting for 6-8 hours.
