You’ll love the lip-smacking flavour of this Instant Pot Butter Chicken. Low carb and keto-friendly juicy chicken in a perfectly thickened creamy, spicy, tomato-based sauce.

INGREDIENTS

2 c. Onion, diced

5 cloves Garlic, minced

4 tbsp Butter

2 lbs Chicken thighs, boneless, skinless, cut into bite-size pieces

1/2 c. Chicken broth

15 oz. Tomato sauce, no added sugar

3 tbsp Tomato paste

2 tbsp Red curry paste

2 tsp Garam masala

1 1/2 tsp ground ginger

1 tsp Salt

½ tsp Smoked paprika

1/2 c. Heavy cream

Cilantro, garnish

HOW TO MAKE INSTANT POT BUTTER CHICKEN

Step 1: To “Saute”, set your Instant Pot. Add in the butter, onion, and garlic, then saute for about 5 minutes until the onions are soft. To cancel the saute mode, press the OFF button.

Step 2: To the pot, add the chicken broth, tomato sauce, red curry paste, and tomato paste and sprinkle with garam masala, ground ginger, salt, and smoked paprika. Stir well.

Step 3: To the liquid, add the chicken, then seal the lid. Set to High Pressure and cook for 7 minutes.

Step 4: Natural release the pressure for about 5 minutes once the timer goes off, then turn the valve to venting to release the rest of the steam.

Step 5: With the lid off, take the chicken out of the pot using a spoon and set it aside.

Step 6: To the pot, add in the heavy cream and puree the sauce with an immersion blender until smooth.

Step 7: Again, set the Instant Pot to “Saute” mode. While simmering stir the sauce and simmer for about 7 to 10 minutes until thickened.

Step 8: Turn the saute off. To the sauce, add the chicken back, stir, and garnish with cilantro.

Note:

If an immersion blender is not available, you can skip the step but it is still recommended for a smoother texture.
