Ingredients
  

  • 2 lb Chicken Breast
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 28 oz crushed tomatoes (canned)
  • 2 Garlic Cloves - Minced
  • 1 tbsp turmeric
  • 2 tsp garam masala
  • 2 tsp cumin
  • salt to taste
  • A few tsp of veggie oil
  • Minced Cilantro (for garnish)
  • Rice (basmatti or brown rice serves well, this should be made separately)

Instructions
 

  • Cube the chicken (bite sized pieces. Note: I like to make basmati rice separately in a rice maker which usually takes about an hour, so get that started before you start here if you're planning on making rice!
  • Set instant pot to sauté mode, then add in some a little bit of oil.
  • Add chicken and sauté for 5-8 minutes until lightly browned. Stir occasionally. You can add a bit of salt to the chicken at this point.
  • Add onions and garlic, sauté for 1-2 more minutes
  • Add remaining ingredients except for the heavy cream, that goes in after the pressure cook cycle is finished.
  • Cover and switch Instant Pot to manual pressure for 8 minutes on high. Go for 10 minutes if you are using larger pieces of chicken
  • Do a quick release, remove lid and set pot to sauté mode
  • Stir in heavy cream and salt, and let it mix together over a few minutes while in sauté mode
  • It's ready to serve!
