Notes
- Storage: Store Instant Pot balsamic chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 days, or freeze for 3 months.

- Be sure to natural release the pressure rather than quick release. This will allow the chicken to continue to cook through and make it perfectly tender.
- I prefer to use chicken stock for this dish, but you can use vegetable stock if that's what you have on hand.
