Ingredients

Instructions

  • Heat the Instant Pot using the Sauté function. Add the olive oil, shallot, and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally for 2 minutes or until the garlic is fragrant. 
  • Next add the asparagus and chicken stock. Stir to combine. 
  • Attach the lid and ensure the valve is in the sealing position. Set the Instant Pot to Pressure Cook - Manual for 5 minutes. 
  • Once the Instant Pot has finished cooking, allow the pressure to release naturally for 5 minutes, then turn the valve to the venting position to release any additional pressure. 
  • Use an immersion blender (or transfer the soup to a high speed blender) and blend until smooth. 
  • Add the cream, butter, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Enjoy warm, garnished with roasted asparagus, freshly cracked black pepper, parmesan cheese, or additional cream. 
  • Store any leftover soup in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days.
