ROAST CHICKEN IN A POT RECIPES

Steps:

• On 6-quart Instant Pot®, select SAUTE; adjust to normal. Melt butter in insert. Rub chicken all over with seasoned salt, and place in insert, breast side down; sear 4 to 6 minutes or until browned. Turn and sear on back side 2 to 4 minutes longer; using tongs, transfer to plate. Select CANCEL.
• Carefully place rack in insert. Add broth. Place chicken breast side up on rack. Secure lid; set pressure valve to SEALING. Select MANUAL; cook on high pressure 20 minutes. Select CANCEL. Keep pressure valve in SEALING position to release pressure naturally. Internal temperature in thigh should be at least 165°F using instant-read thermometer. If chicken is not done, select MANUAL and cook on high pressure 2 to 5 minutes longer. Select CANCEL. Keep pressure valve in SEALING position to release pressure naturally.
• When cool enough to handle, carefully transfer chicken to cutting board, and remove rack.
• Select SAUTE, and adjust to normal; heat liquid to simmering. In small bowl, beat cornstarch and water with whisk; stir into liquid and cook 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until thickened.
• Carve chicken; serve with gravy.

Steps:

• Cut the beef in half crosswise (for quicker cooking), then season with salt and pepper. On a 6 quart Instant Pot®, select the Saute setting. Heat the oil. Add the beef (in batches, if needed) and cook for 15 minutes or until well browned on all sides. Remove the beef from the pot. Add the wine and cook, stirring to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Press Cancel.
• Layer the onions, carrots, potatoes, thyme and beef in the Instant Pot®. Spoon the soup over the beef (the order is important, so don't stir until after the cooking is done).
• Lock the lid and close the pressure release valve. Pressure cook on High pressure, setting the timer to 45 minutes (timer will begin counting down once pressure is reached- it takes about 10 minutes). When done, press Cancel and use the quick release method to release the pressure.
• Remove the beef to a serving plate, cover and keep warm. Select the Saute setting and cook the vegetables and gravy for 10 minutes or until the gravy is slightly thickened. Remove and discard the thyme. Season to taste. Slice the beef and serve with the vegetables and gravy.
