Before getting started, rinse your whole chicken off and pat dry with paper towels.
Then use a large knife to quarter a lemon and medium white onion on a large cutting board. Wash and chop up any veggies that you might use, and then set aside...
In a small mixing bowl, combine all of the seasonings.
Then with your chicken on a large cutting board, sprinkle the seasonings over the chicken and cavity.
Next, stuff the cavity with lemon and onions.
Add the oil to the Instant Pot, and set it to the high sauté setting.
Lay the whole chicken in the Instant Pot with the breast facing down. Cook 'til golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. This will create that crispy and golden brown, rotisserie-style skin that we all know and love!
Finally, use a pair of tongs to turn the chicken over and let it cook in the oil for another 3-4 minutes. Then set aside.
Start by placing your metal trivet down inside of the Instant Pot with the handles up. Then add the chicken broth.
Place your whole chicken on top of the rack; if you're adding any veggies, this is where you'll want to chuck them in.
Select the manual setting, and let it cook on high for about 6 minutes per pound.* When the timer goes off, naturally release the pressure for about 20 more minutes.
Once the pressure has naturally released, remove the chicken from the Instant Pot and let rest on a cutting board for about 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving.
That's it! Serve and enjoy with any sides while fresh and hot.
