Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 4 large carrots diced
- 4 stalks celery large, diced
- 1 medium red onion chopped
- 1/4 tablespoon red pepper flakes crushed
- Sea salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 6 cups chicken broth or vegetable broth, preferably organic
- 1 lb. sweet potatoes cut into 1” chunks
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 pint cherry tomatoes or grape tomatoes, chopped
- 2 cups baby spinach fresh or arugula
- 2 tablespoons lime juice fresh
- Parmesan cheese freshly shaved or grated
Instructions
- Add olive oil to Instant Pot® and select the “Sauté” function. Add garlic, carrots, celery, red onion, and crushed red pepper flakes. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste.
- Sauté, stirring occasionally, 4-5 minutes until fragrant and the vegetables start to develop some color. Deglaze by adding broth and scrapping any brown bits off the bottom of the pot. Press cancel.
- Add sweet potatoes, bay leaves, and cherry tomatoes to the pot. Check to be sure seal is in place, the vent is turned to “Sealing” and set the “Manual” setting to 3 minutes.
- When cook time is complete, allow pressure to naturally release for 10 minutes, then manually release any remaining pressure.
- Remove lid and discard bay leaves and woody stems. Stir in fresh baby spinach or arugula and lime juice. Taste and adjust seasonings by adding additional salt and black pepper, if desired.
- Ladle into bowls, top with freshly shaved or grated Parmesan cheese and enjoy!
This recipe is written with Instant Pot® instructions. Follow cooking guidelines for your specific pressure cooker.
Woody herbs, such as rosemary and thyme, should be added prior to cooking, while more tender herbs, such as parsley or basil, should be stirred in when the spinach or arugula is added. (Discard any woody stems from tougher herbs before serving. Tying the stems together prior to cooking with cooking twine makes this super easy).
