Instant Pot
whole
chicken
and vegetables
Ingredients
butter chicken olive oil fresh thyme fresh rosemary Salt and pepper lemon potatoes carrots onion minced garlic chicken broth
to brown the chicken you can do this a couple of different ways. I added a bit of olive oil to the Instant Pot on the sautee setting and seared the top of the chicken for 5 minutes until it released easily from the bottom. However, you can alternatively place the chicken in the oven on broil setting after cooking in the Instant Pot for a quick, crispy skin.
Note
Making whole chicken in the Instant Pot frees you up to do other things so you don't have to babysit the oven or stove.
