Ingredients:
- 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 0.5 tsp coarse black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 0.5 tsp dried oregano
- 2 cloves smashed garlic
- 1 sprig fresh rosemary
Instructions:
- Pat the chicken breasts completely dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, combine kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and dried oregano. Generously coat both sides of the chicken with the spice rub.
- Select the Sauté function on the Instant Pot. Once hot, add the avocado oil. Sear the chicken for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove chicken and set aside.
- Pour the chicken broth into the pot. Use a wooden spoon to scrape the bottom of the pot to remove all browned bits (fond) to prevent the 'Burn' notice. Place the stainless steel trivet into the liquid.
- Place the seared chicken onto the trivet. Secure the lid and set to Pressure Cook on High for 8–10 minutes (depending on thickness).
- Once the timer ends, allow a Natural Pressure Release (NPR) for 5–10 minutes before releasing any remaining steam. Check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C) before serving.
