 +====== Instant Pot Butter Chicken ======
 +From Delish.com where I am out of free recipes...
  
 +This was delicious. Looked a bit watery when done, but was actually the proper texture when served. Store bought Naan is disappointing,​ I prefer it over rice. Leftover butter chicken over rice is a very nice lunch.
 +
 +I skipped the cilantro. Bought the yogurt and forgot to use it? This recipe isn't very spicy, maybe increase the heat and then serve with yogurt.
 +
 +I used a little more ginger than the recipe calls for.
 +
 +There is too little liquid, you'll get a burn warning, but, as I said, it's almost too thin as directed, so additional liquid isn't a good plan.
 +
 +===== Ingredients =====
 +  * 2 tbsp. unsalted butter
 +  * 1 tbsp. vegetable oil
 +  * 1 large yellow onion, finely chopped
 +  * 5 cloves garlic, crushed and roughly chopped
 +  * 2 tsp. peeled grated ginger
 +  * 6 oz. tomato paste
 +  * 2 lb. skinless, boneless chicken thighs, cut into 1" pieces
 +  * Kosher salt
 +  * Freshly ground black pepper
 +  * 1 c. water
 +  * 1 tbsp. garam masala
 +  * 1 tbsp. granulated sugar
 +  * 1 tsp. ground cumin
 +  * 1 tsp. paprika
 +  * 1/2 tsp. ground turmeric
 +  * 3/4 c. heavy cream
 +  * Fresh cilantro leaves, rice, naan, and yogurt, for serving
 +
 +===== Directions =====
 +  - Preheat Instant Pot to "​Sauté"​ setting. In pot, combine butter and oil until butter is melted. Add onion, garlic, and ginger and cook, stirring occasionally,​ until lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Add tomato paste and cook, stirring frequently, until darkened in color, about 3 minutes.
 +  - Season chicken with salt and pepper. Add chicken, water, garam masala, granulated sugar, cumin, paprika, and turmeric to pot. Seal lid and set to "​Pressure Cook" on High for 5 minutes.
 +  - Let pressure release naturally for 10 minutes, then follow manufacturer'​s instructions for quick releasing remaining steam. ​
 +  - Stir in cream; season with salt and pepper.
 +  - Divide chicken and sauce among plates. Top with cilantro. Serve with rice, naan, and yogurt alongside.
