Instructions

Step 1
Place the chicken, ginger, garlic, onion, 1/4 cup soy sauce, and water in the pot. Stir to combine. Assemble pressure lid, making sure the pressure release valve is in the SEAL position. 

Step 2
Select PRESSURE and set to HIGH. Set time to 22 minutes. Select START/STOP to begin. 

Step 3
When pressure cooking is complete, quick release the pressure by moving the pressure release valve to the VENT position. Carefully remove lid when unit has finished releasing pressure. 

Step 4
Remove the chicken and set in a large bowl to cool. Use a strainer or slotted spoon to remove the garlic, onion, and ginger and discard. 

Step 5
Once the chicken is cool enough to handle, remove skin and shred the meat off the bones. Discard the bones. 

Step 6
In a small bowl, stir together 2 tablespoons soy sauce and sugar. Combine mixture with the shredded meat, then store meat in a bowl wrapped with plastic or other airtight vessel to keep warm. 

Step 7
Select SEAR/SAUTÉ and set to HIGH. Select START/STOP to begin. Bring liquid to a boil. Add the Dijon and whisk vigorously to emulsify the broth. Press the START/STOP button to cancel SEAR/SAUTÉ. 

Step 8
Place noodles into individual bowls. Divide the hot broth among the bowls and cover each bowl with plastic wrap for 3 to 4 minutes, in order to soften noodles. 

Step 9
Once noodles are softened, remove the plastic and add meat and toppings before serving.
