Instructions
- Place trivet rack that comes with the instant pot inside the pot and pour in the chicken broth.
- Then put the whole chicken into the instant pot on top of the trivet breast side up.
- Use a basting brush to rub the olive oil all over the skin of the chicken.
- Mix all the seasonings together in a small bowl.
- Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the chicken and use the basting brush to coat the chicken with the seasonings.
- Seal the instant pot and cook on high pressure for 6 minutes per pound of the whole chicken you use for this recipe with a 15 minutes natural release. The chicken I used for this recipe was 5 pounds so I cooked my chicken on high pressure for 30 minutes with a 15 minute natural release.
- Let the chicken rest for 10 minutes. Then slice and serve. Enjoy!
- Refrigerate the leftovers in an air tight container for up to 5-7 days.
