Description
A delicious and easy recipe for preparing a turkey breast in your Instant Pot.
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 pounds turkey breast
- ¼ cup butter (melted)
- seasonings, to taste (salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme, garlic powder, onion powder)
- 15 ounces chicken broth
Instructions
- Place trivet in the bottom of the Instant Pot.
- Cut the netting and packaging off of the turkey. Remove the gravy packet (if there is one).
- Place the frozen turkey in the Instant Pot.
- Rub (or brush) melted butter on all sides of the turkey.
- Top the turkey with all the seasonings, trying to cover as much of the surface of the turkey as possible.
- Pour chicken broth in the bottom of the Instant Pot, being careful to not pour it directly on the turkey and wash all the seasonings off.
- Place the lid on the Instant Pot, push the MANUAL button, and set the timer for 1 hour and 25 minutes (more or less depending on how big your turkey is).
- When cooking is finished, allow for a natural release for 20 minutes. Move the valve to VENTING and release any remaining pressure.
- Remove turkey and let rest for about 10 minutes, then slice and serve.
- If desired, use drippings to make a gravy.
- If you want a crispier skin, place the turkey in an oven-safe pan and broil in the oven for 1-3 minutes until it reaches the crisp you desire.
Notes
- Cooking times may vary depending on the size of the turkey.
