STEP 1

Place tomatoes and all spices in the bottom of the Instant Pot.

STEP 2

Add in chicken thighs or chicken breast. You do not need to add any water. The chicken and tomatoes alone will release a lot of water. If you have an 8-quart pressure cooker, you may want to double the ingredients or add in 1/4 cup of water just to be cautious.

STEP 3

Cook the butter chicken for 10 mins on high pressure. Allow it to release pressure naturally for an additional 10 minutes.

STEP 4

At this point, remove the chicken and set it aside. You will be adding things and blending the sauce into a tomato puree--and you don't want blended chicken in your Butter Chicken.

STEP 5

Add butter, cream, and 1 additional teaspoon of garam masala.

STEP 5

Once it's cooked and you've puréed and finished the sauce, you'll TAKE OUT half the sauce and save it. Only then will you put the tender chicken back. This means you now have the lovely buttery tomato-ey sauce ready for the next time you have chicken leftover.
