Place a trivet in a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot). Pour in chicken broth and add chicken breasts. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 10 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build. Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 10 minutes. Release remaining pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Place cooked chicken breasts on a baking sheet and broil until skin is nicely browned, about 4 minutes. Cook’s Note Any spice blend you like can be used in place of the Cajun seasoning.You do not need to use a trivet; you can place the chicken directly into the broth.I made three chicken breasts and still used 1 cup of broth, and I increased the cooking time to 12 minutes.
