Instant Pot Buttery Lemon Chicken

Easy and healthy chicken breasts deliciously cooked
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 11 minutes
Servings 6

Equipment

  • Instant Pot Pressure Cooker (or similar)

Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breast
  • 2 tbsp flour (I prefer a light gluten-free flour)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil extra virgin
  • 2 tbsp salted butter
  • 1 tsp lemon pepper seasoning (if using unsalted seasoning, add 1/4 tsp sea salt)
  • 4 lemons thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth low sodium

Instructions

  • Take chicken breasts and cutlet in half, lengthwise. This will give you four to six pieces.
  • In a gallon-sized plastic bag, add flour and chicken. Zip closed and shake bag so that flour coats the chicken.
  • Turn on saute function in Instant Pot and add oil and butter and melt. Add chicken and saute until lightly browned, approximately five minutes. Turn of.
  • Sprinkle chicken with lemon pepper and cover with sliced lemons and chicken broth.
  • Secure lid properly on pressure cooker and set on Poultry/high Pressure and cook for eleven (11) minutes.
  • Allow pot to release pressure naturally before release vent pressure. If in a hurry, by all means release the pressure according to your pressure cooker's instructions. Enjoy!
