PRESSURE COOKER WHOLE CHICKEN

Steps:

• Combine salt, paprika, cayenne, onion powder, thyme, black pepper, white pepper, and garlic powder together in a small bowl. Rub the outside of the chicken and inside the cavity generously with the seasoning mixture.
• Turn on an electric pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Pour oil into the pot and allow to get hot, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Brown chicken in the hot oil on each side (breast side and back side) for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove chicken from the pot and set it aside on a plate. Cancel Sauté function.
• Pour chicken stock into the pot and scrape the bottom with a wooden spoon to loosen any browned bits.
• Place a steamer rack trivet in the bottom of the pressure cooker pot, then place the whole chicken, breast side up, on top of the trivet.
• Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 25 minutes. Allow about 6 minutes for pressure to build.
• Let pressure release naturally according to manufacturer's instructions, 25 to 35 minutes. Unlock lid and remove.
• Open the lid and carefully remove the chicken from the pressure cooker. Allow the chicken to rest for 10 minutes before carving.
