Ingredients
6.5 pound whole chicken
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp dried Italian seasonings
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1.5 cups low sodium chicken broth
2 tsp guar gum
Instructions
Rub 1 tablespoon of oil all over the chicken and place the rest of the oil in the bottom of the Instant Pot.
Mix the dry seasonings together and sprinkle all over the chicken.
Press “Saute” and heat the oil, then add the whole chicken into the pot, breast side down. Hit “cancel”.
Give it 5 minutes to brown then flip the chicken over and pour in the chicken broth.
Cover your pot and Press “Manual” and timer for 40 minutes. It will take about 10 minutes for pressure then the timer will begin.
Once time is done, hit “Cancel” and manually release pressure.
Be careful of the steam when removing the cover of the pot.
Remove chicken from the pot to make the gravy.
Sprinkle the guar gum over the hot broth in the pot and stir continually to thicken. If it”s not thickening as quick as you’d like, simple hit “saute” to warm the broth and continue to stir until the gravy is thickened. You could also add 1 more teaspoon of guar gum if it’s not as thick as you’d like.
Serve with gravy and a sprinkle of chopped parsley if desired.
