03 Method

Step 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.
Step 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.
Step 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.
Step 4

The sauce will thicken more as it sits. Turn off, add the chicken back in, and serve with rice and/or naan.
