Notes

No cream-of soup by design. Slurry and milk make a silky sauce. Add potatoes in Step 1 if using. For thicker sauce, add 1 extra tsp cornstarch + 1 tsp water. Avoid curdling: add milk at the end and simmer gently. Instant Pot: Pressure cook chicken, veggies, broth, and seasonings 8 min, natural release 10. Stir in milk/slurry on Sauté; peas last. Stovetop: Simmer 20 min, thicken with milk/slurry, peas last.
