Make sure stainless steel insert is in your instant pot.
Turn on saute on instant pot and melt half the butter. Brown two to three chicken thighs at a time, and brown 2 minutes on each side.
Remove chicken onto a plate, add water in the IP and the rest of the butter and scrape the bottom area with the flat wooden spatula.
Add minced garlic and saute for 30 seconds, then add parsley and the lemon juice and saute and mix for 10 seconds.
Turn off/cancel the saute function.

Garnish with parsley and eat with rice or potatoes.
