Savor the rich flavors of curried chicken thighs made effortlessly in your Instant Pot.
This pressure-cooked chicken curry is easy to prepare. I'm not a fan of spicy, so I have made this with mild yellow curry powder. Feel free to substitute your preferred curry for your desired heat level. Serve over basmati rice.

  • 1 teaspoon honey powder (such as Savory Spice®)
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 small onion, cut in half and thinly sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

Directions

  • Step 1:
    Season chicken thighs with 2 teaspoons curry powder, honey powder, salt, and black pepper.
  • Step 2:
    Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Heat oil and butter. Add chicken and cook until browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate. Add onion; cook and stir until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and ginger; cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Return chicken to Instant Pot®. Add tomatoes and tomato powder. Close and lock the lid.

    Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, for 10 minutes. Switch to the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions and release remaining pressure for about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
  • Step 5:
    Turn on Saute function. Add coconut milk, cumin, and remaining curry powder to the pot. Cook until sauce has thickened, about 5 minutes.
