Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 chicken breasts (1 inch thick)
  • seasonings of your choice
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 cup water

Instruction

  • Turn your Instant Pot on Sauté, Normal. Melt butter in the Instant Pot. 
  • While the butter is melting, make sure the chicken breasts are 1 inch in thickness. If they are too thick, put them in a zip top bag and use your rolling pin to flatten them a bit. Generously season one side of the breast.
  • Once the butter has melted, add the chicken breasts, seasoned side DOWN, to the Instant Pot. Season the side facing up (the unseasoned side). Let the chicken brown for 5-7 minutes on each side.
  • Remove chicken breasts from the Instant Pot and deglaze the pot with the water. Once the pot has been deglazed, insert the trivet, place the chicken breasts onto the trivet.
  • Cook on Manual, HIGH for 5 minutes. Allow for a 5 minute NPR then quick release the rest of the pressure. Take lid off, but let chicken sit and rest for another 5 minutes.
  • Once the chicken has rested, take out of the Instant Pot and either enjoy, slice or shred!
