The Best  Instant Pot Butter Chicken 

A Pressure Cooker Kitchen Laura Lynch

While this Instant Pot version takes some short cuts and isn’t exactly “authentic”, it’s also one of the easiest preparation methods and it turns out so creamy and flavorful.

Ingredients You Need

– Crushed tomatoes – Garlic and ginger – Turmeric, cayenne pepper, paprika, salt, cumin, Garam Masala – Boneless skinless chicken thighs  – Butter and heavy cream – Cilantro

STEP ONE

Combine first 9 ingredients in the Instant Pot and stir well. Place the chicken thighs on top of the sauce.

STEP TWO

Close the lid and cook for 10 minutes. When the time is up, allow a 10-minute pressure release, then release the remaining pressure.

STEP THREE

Remove the chicken, puree the sauce in the pot. Add in the butter, heavy cream, remaining Garam Masala, and cilantro. Stir well.

STEP FOUR

Break the chicken into smaller pieces with a fork and return it to the pot. Allow it time to heat the chicken through again.

SERVE 

Serve over rice and Enjoy!
