Instant Pot Chicken Soup with Root Vegetables & Barley

Be sure to use bone-in chicken here--it enhances the flavor of the broth, and the bones are easy to remove after cooking. This healthy chicken soup can be made in an Instant Pot or pressure cooker.

1 tablespoon olive oil or canola oil

1 large onion, chopped (2 cups)

2 stalks celery, chopped (½ cup)

3 cloves garlic, minced

½ cup pearled barley, rinsed

1 (32 ounce) carton low-sodium chicken broth

1 pound bone-in chicken breast or thighs

4 medium carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks (2 cups)

2 large parsnips, cored, peeled, and cut into 1-inch chunks (2 cups)

¼ cup chopped fresh dill or 1 Tbsp. dried

3 tablespoons lemon juice, plus lemon wedges for serving

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon ground pepper
