Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1 onion diced
- 4 garlic cloves minced
- 1 tablespoon ginger minced
- 1 teaspoon Turmeric
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 ½ pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs cut into 2-inch pieces
- 1 ounce can crushed tomatoes
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 4 teaspoons cold water
- 1 cup coconut milk
- ¼ cup cilantro chopped
- ½ teaspoon garam masala
Instructions
- Add butter to the InstantPot and set to sauté. Once melted, add onion, garlic and ginger and cook, stirring often for about 5 minutes. Add turmeric, cumin, paprika and salt and stir to coat the vegetables with spices. Cook for about 1 minute, or until very fragrant.
- Add chicken and crushed tomatoes to the pot. Hit ‘cancel’ then add the lid with the vent set in the ‘sealed’ position. Set to manual pressure for 10 minutes. When the cooking time is up, let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes, then release any remaining pressure manually by opening the vent.
- In a small bowl, gradually whisk the water into the cornstarch until the cornstarch is dissolved completely and the mixture is smooth.
- When you are able to open the lid, add coconut milk and slurry and stir until creamy and incorporated. Add cilantro and garam masala and serve.
