4. Melt butter in Instant Pot and stir in the onions and garlic. Add lemon juice to deglaze pan. Cook for 1 minute then add Italian seasoning, lemon zest, and chicken broth.
5. Place the chicken back into the Instant Pot, lock the lid, and turn the valve to SEAL.
6. Select the Manual (older modelor Pressure Cook (newer modelbutton and adjust the timer to 7 minutes.
7. It will take about 5-10 minutes to come to pressure and start counting down.
