Ingredients

  • 1 whole chicken, rinsed and patted dry
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons mixed Italian herbs (optional)
  • 2 pounds (960 g) white potatoes, quartered
  • 2 oz (60 g) unsalted butter
  • 7 cloves garlic, peeled
  • 2 cups (500 ml) chicken stock
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • To Make a Gravy:
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1½ cups (375 ml) chicken broth

Method

Step 1

Slice 3 cloves of garlic into thin slices and lay each under the chicken skin. Smash 2 cloves and place inside the chicken. Chop finely the remaining 2 garlic cloves for the basting butter.

Step 2

Add 1 teaspoon salt, herbs, and smashed garlic to the inside cavity of the chicken. Using fingers, peel the skin from the chicken breasts, then insert a few garlic slices underneath, including 3-4 pieces around the chicken breasts and a couple of garlic slices under the wings.

Step 3

Rub the chicken on both sides with the remaining seasoned salt and herbs. Set aside.

Step 4

Pour 2 cups (500 ml) chicken stock into the instant pot. Place potatoes in the stock, then sprinkle with a dash of salt.

Step 5

Set a trivet on top of potatoes. Arranger the seasoned chicken on the trivet, chicken breast up.

Step 6

Close the pot and lock the lid. Set the machine to cook at high pressure. Set the timer to cook for 20 minutes.

Step 7

Meanwhile, prepare the herb and garlic butter. In a heat-proof bowl, combine cubed butter, chopped garlic, and a pinch of dried herbs. Season with more salt. Microwave on high for 1 minute. Mix well and set aside.

Step 8

Using the Quick Release method, bring pressure to normal. Carefully unlock and open the lid. Using gloves, remove the trivet with chicken and transfer it to a large baking tray. Using a slotted spoon, remove cooked potatoes and transfer them to the same baking tray. Add a little cooking broth to the bottom of the tray.

Step 9

Brush the chicken and potatoes with garlic. Bake at 400 F (200 C) for about 20-25 minutes, then remove the chicken, leaving potatoes in for a further 10 minutes.

Step 10

In a small saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, onion powder, and a pinch of black pepper. Cook, stirring constantly. While stirring, slowly pour 1/2cup (125 ml) of chicken broth. Once it is incorporated into the roux, add the remaining broth.

Step 11

Stir for 2 minutes, or until it thickens to desired consistency. Season with more salt and black pepper, to taste.
