Easy Butter Chicken

This is a really easy Instant Pot butter chicken recipe that is moist and full of flavor. It only takes 5 minutes to cook and the perfect family dinner with a side of naan. If you’re never tried making pressure cooker butter chicken this is an easy one to start with. Add your spices to make it just right for you!

Ingredients :
  • 2 tbsp. Corn starch, optional to thicken sauce at the end
  • 3 tsp. Garam masala
  • 1 1/2 tsp. Cumin
  • 1 1/2 tsp. Chili powder
  • 1 tbsp. Ginger, chopped
  • 1 tbsp. Garlic, minced
  • 5 tbsp. Butter
  • 1/2 Onion
  • 1 1/2 cups Tomato sauce
  • 1 1/2 cups Heavy cream
  • 6 Chicken thighs boneless, skinless, cut into bite size cubes
Directions :
  1. Turn your pressure cooker to saute, and add your butter. When butter is melted add cubed chicken and onions. Cook just enough for chicken pieces to cook just a touch on the outside and are no longer pink. Add all other ingredients into your pressure cooker and mix well.
  2. Put the lid on and close the steam valve. Set to low pressure for 5 minutes. When done allow to naturally release for 1 minute (to avoid splatters), then do a quick release.
  3. Lift the lid. Serve immediately or remove chicken and set to saute low for just a few minutes. Put some of the hot liquid in a small bowl with 1 tbsp of cornstarch and whisk together, add back into the pot and stir. May do this again with another tbsp.
  4. The sauce will thicken more as it sits. Turn off, add the chicken back in, and serve with rice and/or naan.
