Instructions
If the turkey breast is labeled as "brined" or "oven-ready", omit the salt.
Rub the turkey breast with butter all over (if using).
In a cup, mix salt (if using), black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and Italian seasoning. Rub the spice mix all over the turkey breast.
Pour water in the Instant Pot, insert the trivet (the metal rack that came with the Instant Pot) and put turkey breast on a trivet.
Close the Instant Pot lid and turn the valve to a Sealing position.
Press the "Pressure Cook" or "Manual" button and set the time for 25 minutes on High pressure for fresh turkey breast (or 60 minutes on High pressure for frozen turkey breast).
When it's done cooking, let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes (NR), then quick release (QR) the remaining steam.
