My husband and I make this religiously! We have a number of Indian friends who have commented that it is one of the best tasting Butter Chicken dishes they have ever had…admittedly we are pretty heavy handed on the spices and paprika! We love this recipe and it is just so easy! There has not been a takeaway type that has ever even come close, and this is definitely my ultimate comfort food. Don’t forget the paratha and raita!!

In reply to Lesley. Thanks Lesley! I wasn't a huge chicken thighs fan until I cooked them in the pressure cooker. Now I prefer them too. What brand of sauce did you use?

I made your butter chicken from your cookbook this weekend using bottled sauce (added in after pressure cooking the chicken as instructed) and cooking the rice in a pan on top of the chicken. We usually order in Indian food on Saturday. It was hard to tell the difference between the ordered in butter chicken and the Instantpot version. The rice cooked perfectly. Only changes I made was that I used boneless chicken thighs (much prefer to chicken breast) and basmati rice.

In reply to Susan. What a great idea Susan - an Instant Pot cooking club. I wonder if your group is still meeting.

In reply to Kathleen. Hi Kathleen - so glad it was a hit! Roast on the seeds on stovetop in a small pan with no oil over medium heat just until they're fragrant.

Did I miss how to use the roasted cumin seeds? Can’t find it in the instructions.
It was delicious, and after I added the yogurt and slurry, I tasted it and felt it was great as is so didn’t add the cream. We lived it!

This was perfect Barbara. It was the first recipe I made in my new Instant Pot. I actually added a cup of diced pumpkin, 2 sliced carrots and a handful of beans to it as there was so much delicious sauce. Where is the 5 stars rating?
