Number of Servings: 26

Ingredients

    91.68 oz Tyson premium young chicken
    3 tbsp Olive Oil - Tablespoon (by TOMSTUMP)
    6 serving Salt, Sea, FIne, Alessi 1/4 teaspoon (by MISSMERCURY0)
    1 tsp Pepper, black
    1 tsp Thyme, dried, ground (by K-LUEBCKE)
    .5 tbsp Basil
    .5 tsp Garlic powder
    1 tsp Onion powder
    1 cup (8 fl oz) Chicken Broth

Directions

FOR THE INSTANT POT METHOD (THAWED CHICKEN):
1. Carefully loosen the skin from the chicken breast with your hands lifting and separating the meat. Gently rub half of oil followed by half of the seasonings under the skin using your hands and fingers. Next, rub the outside skin of the chicken with another tablespoon of oil and the other third of the seasonings and rub in.

2. Press the SAUTE button HIGH and heat 1 tablespoon olive oil.

3.Place the chicken - breast side down, and sear for 5-7 minutes, or until a golden brown. Using tongs and a spatula, flip chicken over and sear for another 5-6 minutes.

4. Remove chicken and place on a large platter. Place the trivet (that came with the Instant Pot or use another) inside the inner pot of the Instant Pot. Pour water or chicken broth inside. Place chicken on top of trivet, breast side up.

5. Cover and lock lid. Turn the valve to SEALING.

6. Press the MANUAL or HIGH PRESSURE button and set to 24 minutes if your chicken is four pounds. If it's smaller or larger, calculate how much time it should cook by multiplying the number of pounds by 6 minutes. So, a 3 pound chicken would be 18 minutes and a five pound chicken would be 30. For a FROZEN WHOLE CHICKEN - set to 42 minutes ON HIGH for a 4 lb chicken. Allow the Instant Pot to come to pressure (this may take about 10-15 minutes).

7. Once the 24 minutes is up and the Instant Pot beeps indicating the chicken is done, allow to naturally release for at least 15 minutes and then quick release for any extra pressure.

8. Open lid and transfer chicken to a platter or a large cutting board. Optional: Broil in the oven for 4-5 minutes to crisp up the skin.

9.Slice or shred and serve with your favorite sides.
