Instructions

  • Take your 1 inch thick chicken breast (if it is a very large breast, cut it in half) and season one side.
  • Turn the Instant Pot onto Saute and melt the butter. Once the butter has melted place the chicken breast SEASONED SIDE DOWN into the liner of the Instant Pot. 
  • Sear until golden brown and then repeat on the other side. Once both sides have been seared, remove the chicken from the Instant Pot. Pour in the cup of water and scrape all of the stuck on bits off. Take care to make sure that they all are removed so you don't het the burn message.
  • Place the trivet inside the Instant Pot and place the chicken breast on the trivet. Cook on Manual HIGH for 5 minutes. Allow for 5 minute NPR and then let it rest for an additional 5 minutes before slicing. Slice and return to the juice in the Instant Pot until ready to serve.
