Butter Chicken

Yields: 4

Preparation time: 5

Cooking time: 20

Ingredients

  • 1 14-oz Canned Tomatoes
  • 5-6 cloves Garlic
  • 1-2 tsps Minced Ginger
  • 1 tsp Turmeric
  • 1/4 tsp Cayenne Pepper
  • 1 tsp Smoked Paprika
  • 1 tsp Garam Masala
  • 1 tsp Ground Cumin
  • 1 lb Boneless, Skinless Chicken Thighs/Breasts
  • 4 oz Butter (cubed)
  • 4 oz Heavy Cream
  • 1 tsp Garam Masala
  • 1/4 - 1/2 cup Cilantro, Chopped

Directions

  • Place all ingredients into an Instant Pot in the order listed, EXCEPT for the butter, cream and 1 teaspoon of the garam masala, mixing the sauce well before you place the chicken on top of the sauce. If it’s frozen, push it into the sauce a bit so it defrosts better.
  • Close the cooker and set for 10 mins on high, and let it release pressure naturally for 10 minutes. After that, release all remaining pressure.
  • Open up the pot and remove the chicken carefully and set aside.
  • Blend together all the ingredients, preferably using an immersion blender.
  • Add the cut up butter, cream, cilantro, and garam masala and stir until well incorporated.
  • Add the chicken back in and heat through. Break it up into smaller pieces if you need but don’t shred it.
  • Serve over rice, or zucchini noodles.
