Instructions
- Quarter the onion and slice the garlic bulb in half.
- Place the trivet rack into the Instant Pot then add the onion, garlic and fresh herbs.
- Season the chicken all over with salt and pepper, including seasoning the cavity.
- Stir together the oil, lemon juice and seasonings.
- Brush the seasoning oil over the chicken.
- Add the chicken to the Instant Pot then pour in the chicken stock.
- Close the Instant Pot lid, making sure the vent is in the sealing position.
- Pressure cook on high pressure for 18 minutes and quick-release the pressure.
- At this stage, you can serve the chicken as is or use to shred into soups, salads, sandwiches etc. but I prefer broiling it for 10-15 minutes to crisp the skin and add some color before serving.
- Carefully remove the chicken from the pot then place in a baking dish, drizzle with a little oil and broil until golden brown for 10-15 minutes.
- Optional: Pour the leftover stock through a strainer into a small saucepan. Whisk together 2 teaspoons cornstarch with 2 teaspoons water and stir into the stock. Place over medium heat and allow to simmer until thickened. Serve the gravy with the cooked chicken.
