INSTANT POT BUTTER CHICKEN

Steps:

• Set a 6-quart Instant Pot® to high saute and melt 4 tablespoons of the butter (see Cook's Note). Add the ginger, fenugreek leaves, fenugreek seeds, garam masala, garlic, cardamom, onion, serrano, cinnamon stick and 1 tablespoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are tender and beginning to brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and cook, stirring frequently and scraping the bottom of the pot so that it doesn't burn, until it turns a brick red. Deglaze with 3 cups water and stir to combine. Add the tomatoes and layer the chicken on top.

Add the cream and remaining 4 tablespoons butter and continue to blend until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy and no streaks of cream remain.
