Buffalo Instant Pot Chicken Leg Quarters

Step 1

Combine the salt, garlic powder and onion powder in a small bowl. Sprinkle over all sides of the chicken leg quarters to season.

Step 2

Place the trivet inside the Instant Pot and arrange the chicken legs on top of the trivet skin side up.

Step 3

Pour the water into the bottom of the Instant Pot careful to not wash off the seasoning on the chicken.

Step 4

Set the valve to the "sealing" position and cook on "poultry" setting for 15 minutes. If your Instant Pot doesn't have a poultry setting, use "manual" for the same amount of time.

Step 5

Let the pressure naturally release for 5 minutes then manually release the remaining pressure until the valve drops.

Step 6

Place the pressure cooked chicken leg quarters skin side up on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and brush with half the buffalo sauce. (*see notes)

Step 7

Broil the chicken on high for 3-4 minutes until the skin starts to crisp and turn golden brown.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and brush or toss with remaining buffalo sauce before serving.
