My Instant Pot Whole Chicken takes the extra struggle out of serving a roasted chicken and still delivers a meal your whole family will love!

Whole chickens provide an inexpensive and tasty meal but can be a lot of work and time when cooked with conventional methods.

YOU WILL NEED: – Whole Chicken – Butter – Head of garlic – Lemon – Salt and Black Pepper – Dried Basil – Paprika – Water

The cavity is stuffed with lemon and garlic and seasoning is applied to the outside of the chicken.

Add this to the pressure cooker, place the trivet in the IP, add the chicken, and set it for 30 minutes (my chicken is 4 pounds) on high pressure.

You’ll have plenty of time to make your side dishes for this meal or even just walk away from the kitchen for a bit.

Once the chicken is out, verify the safe minimum cooking temperature reaches 165ºF. If this will be the main dish, then I recommend adding some paprika to the chicken, then broil the chicken for five to ten minutes to crisp it up. Keep a close eye on it to avoid it from burning.
