Prepare your chicken by carefully unwrapping it over the sink. Don't rinse the chicken. Make sure the chicken's cavity is cleared of the giblet packaging, if it came with one. The giblets can be used to make chicken broth, gravy, or they can be discarded. 1 whole chicken
Using paper towels, pat the chicken dry. Then stuff half of the onion, half the bulb of garlic, and 4 lemon quarters inside the chicken. 1 red onion 1/2 bulb garlic 1-2 lemon
In a small bowl mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Rub about half of the mixture on the bottom and sides of the chicken. 4 tsp olive oil
Place the chicken breast side up into the crisping basket of the Ninja Foodi. Add 1 1/4 cups of water to the bottom of the pot.
Drizzle the rest of the oil mixture on top of the chicken, then sprinkle the salt and pepper onto the top of the chicken.
Pressure cook the chicken on high for 6 minutes per pound, then allow the pressure to naturally release for 10 minutes before doing a quick release.
Press the "air crisp" button and close the lid. Cook for 15 minutes or so, checking every 5 minutes and turning the seasonings (garlic, onions, and lemons) so they cook evenly.
Remove the chicken. Keep the seasonings separate. The ones on the outside of the chicken (even the lemons) will be delicious and edible, while the ones inside are not.
