Instant Pot Garlic & Lemon Chicken



I just love my Instant Pot! Makes meal time so much faster and perfect for when I forget that we have appointments that day and can still make a wonderful dinner my Dad and Chase will love. Which is how this recipe came about after a busy day and two hungry men on my hands that needed to be fed.



4 tsp granulated garlic or garlic powder
1 tsp msg (opt)
1 tsp lemon pepper
1/2 tsp Spanish paprika
1/2 tsp pepper
6 chicken thighs with skin removed and bone in
1/3 cup lemon juice
2 cups chicken broth

Mix first 5 ingredients together and dredge the chicken thighs in the seasoning mixture on both sides. Put the Instant Pot steam rack in the Instant Pot and then place the seasoned chicken thighs on the rack. Combine the lemon juice and the chicken broth together and add any unused seasoning from the dredging. Pour over chicken. Make sure you lock the lid into sealing position and the pressure valve is turned upwards.  Use poultry setting on Instant Pot and set  for 15 minutes cooking time and natural release for 20 to 25 minutes.
                               
                                     Makes 2 to 4 servings

I served it with fresh corn and Alfredo pasta.

Always go by your Instant Pot instructions since it may vary by Instant Pots. As with any appliance stay safe and do not let children around the Instant Pot unless accompanied by an adult even then when the pressure is being released please don't let children near the Instant Pot.
