Step one: plate chicken, onion, garlic, olive oil, oregano, allspice, lemon pepper seasoning, lemon juice, vinegar, and broth in instant pot.

Step two: Cover and press the manual button and set the timer for 20 minutes. Once the timer beeps let the pressure release naturally for 10-15 minutes and then release the valve for venting.
