Ingredients
-
4 (6 ounce) chicken thighs
-
2 teaspoons mild yellow curry powder (such as Savory Spice®)
-
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
-
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger root
-
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
-
1 tablespoon tomato powder
-
½ cup coconut milk
-
1 teaspoon ground cumin
-
1 tablespoon mild yellow curry powder (such as Savory Spice®)
Directions
-
Season chicken thighs with 2 teaspoons curry powder, honey powder, salt, and black pepper.
-
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.
-
Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 20 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
-
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.
-
Turn on Saute function. Add coconut milk, cumin, and remaining curry powder to the pot. Cook until sauce has thickened, about 5 minutes.
Cook’s Note
I love using tomato powder as it has a robust taste. While you can use tomato paste, I prefer tomato powder because I don't have to worry about leftover tomato paste. Honey powder is dehydrated honey. You can use honey, but I prefer honey powder because it's not sticky. Both can be found at the Savory Spice Shop, or your local grocer may carry them.
