Instant Pot Whole Chicken
PREP TIME: 5 minutes COOK TIME: 20-40 minutes SERVINGS: Approx 6
Ingredients
1 whole chicken (3-5 lbs) with innards removed
1-2 cups water
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
Directions
Put the trivet inside your Instant Pot and place chicken on top. Add water to the pot along with garlic, salt and pepper.
Set and seal lid on Instant Pot and make sure valve is turned to sealed. Cook 6 minutes per pound of chicken on high pressure or poultry setting.
• 3 pound chicken: 18 minutes on high pressure
• 4 pound chicken: 24 minutes on high pressure
• 5 pound chicken: 30 minutes on high pressure
For every half a pound add 3 minutes to total cooking time
Once the pressure cooker is done, allow it to vent naturally for 15-20 minutes. Move the tab to venting on the Instant Pot to release the remaining steam, making sure to cover the vent with a kitchen towel so the juices do not spray everywhere.
With a digital thermometer, check the temperature of the chicken to ensure it has reached 165 degrees. Remove chicken from the pot, let rest for 10 minutes and shred.
