Make seasoning rub and prep the chicken. Stir together your Stone House Seasoning, 1/2 of the olive oil, and the paprika in a small bowl to form a paste. Rub or brush half of the paste all over the breast side of the chicken.
Prep the Instant Pot. Set your Instant Pot to Saute. Drizzle half of the olive oil into the bottom of the Instant Pot container.
Brown the chicken. Using tongs, place the chicken breast side down into the Instant Pot. Brown the outside of the chicken for about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, carefully brush the remaining paste onto the bottom side of the chicken.
Remove the chicken. Once the breast side of the chicken has browned, using the tongs, carefully remove the chicken from the Instant Pot.
Transfer the chicken. Place the chicken onto the trivet with handles. I like to do this on a parchment-lined baking sheet for easy cleanup.
Add the stock and chicken to Instant Pot. Pour the chicken stock, broth or water into the Instant Pot. Carefully lower the trivet with the chicken back into the Instant Pot.
Pressurecook the chicken. Seal the Instant Pot and cook at high pressure for 25 minutes. Allow the pressure to release naturally for about 15 minutes. Check the temperature of the chicken by inserting an instant-read meat thermometer into the side of the chicken breast closest to the bone. The chicken breast should register 165º F.
Serve the chicken. Remove the chicken from the Instant Pot using the handles of the trivet. Transfer the chicken to a serving platter and serve warm.
