IP Butter chicken

 This really was delicious.  I've heard about butter chicken before, but didn't know what it was.  I was pleasantly surprised with how yummy this was.  


  • 2 TBS butter
  • 2 TBS minced garlic
  • 2 inch fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 tsp garam masala
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp ground tumeric
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2lbs chicken thighs, diced
  • 17 oz tomato sauce
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 TBS parsley

  1. Press Sauté on the Instant Pot.  Melt the butter then add the garlic and ginger.  Cook until fragrant (about 1 minute)
  2. Add all the spices and the salt.  Stir while cooking for about a minute.  Add tomato sauce and 1/4 cup water.  
  3. Stir in chicken thighs.  
  4. Secure the lid, seal the vent, and pressure cook for 6 mins at high pressure, then quick release.  
  5. When IP has released pressure, remove lid, switch to aute, and stir in the cream.  Allow the sauce to reduce a little.  Stir in parsley.
  6. Serve over rice.
