Instructions
-
In a small bowl, combine thyme, lemon zest, garlic, salt (about 1 tsp), black pepper (about 1/2 tsp). Brush chicken with half of canola oil; season with thyme mixture. Set 6-qt Instant Pot to the high sauté setting. Working in batches, add remaining oil and chicken, and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side; set aside. Place metal trivet into the pot and add chicken stock and lemon juice. Gently place chicken on top of the trivet, slightly overlapping. Select manual setting; adjust pressure to high and set time for 5 minutes. When finished cooking, quick-release pressure according to manufacturer's directions. Add the bag of asparagus to microwave unopened for 5 minutes. Serve chicken immediately with asparagus and grapes on the side. Enjoy!
