Ingredients

Goes in the Instant potat the start

  • 1 teaspoons fresh minced ginger
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1/2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoon garam masala
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 2 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 can 791 ml diced tomatoes We like the Kirkland brand as it’s FODMAP friendly.
  • 1 tbsp garlic infused oil
  • 1 tbsp onion infused oil

Added after Instant pot cooking

  • 1/2 cup Lactose free Greek Yogurt
  • 1/2 cup Coconut milk
  • 3 grinds Salt
  • 3 grinds pepper

Instructions

  • Throw everything in the Instant except the “Added after slow cooking”
  • Turn the Instant pot on for 10 mins on high.  Once time is up let it release for 10 mins
  • Remove the chicken and cut it up into bite size pieces
  • Blend the sauce that is left in the Instant pot.  Either by blender or immersion blender.
  • return the chicken to the sauce.
  • Once the sauce has cooled enough to eat, stir in the remaining ingredients.  It’s important to let things cool as you don’t want to curdle the greek yogurt.  If it’s to hot this will happen.
  • Serve on Rice!  Finish with more salt and pepper!  This is key, it really bring out the flavours.

    Have made this dish before and it was excellent. Would like to make this recipe for a dinner later this week. If I make it a day ahead how would you recommend reheating the dish? Please let me know. Thank you!

    I tried this recipe tonight because I wanted something quick and both me and my husband were impressed. As others suggested, I cut the amount of butter in half, which turned out just perfect. I also added 2 tsp. Italian seasoning and 2 tsp. grated parmesan cheese to the cracker crumbs. This is one I will be making again. Thanks for the quick, easy and DELICIOUS recipe!
