Easy Pressure Cooker Chicken Tikka Masala

If you're looking for a quick and fuss-free way to enjoy Chicken Tikka Masala, a pressure cooker is your best friend. With just a few ingredients and minimal effort, you can create a flavorful and satisfying dish that's perfect for busy weeknights.


Ingredients:


1 boneless, skinless chicken breast

1 jar of Tikka Masala sauce (store-bought or homemade)

Rice or naan bread, for serving

Fresh cilantro (optional), for garnish

Instructions:


Prepare the Chicken: Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces.

Pressure Cooking:

Place the chicken pieces in the pressure cooker.

Pour the entire jar of Tikka Masala sauce over the chicken.

Secure the lid of the pressure cooker and cook on high pressure for about 15-20 minutes (or according to your pressure cooker's instructions) until the chicken is tender and cooked through.

Shred the Chicken: Once the pressure has released naturally, open the lid carefully.

Use a fork or tongs to shred the chicken directly in the sauce. The chicken should be tender and infused with the flavorful sauce.

Serve and Enjoy:

Spoon the chicken Tikka Masala over cooked rice or alongside warm naan bread.

Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.

Enjoy the flavorful and hearty meal!

Tips and Variations:


Customize the dish by adding vegetables like bell peppers or onions along with the chicken.

For a creamier texture, stir in a splash of heavy cream or coconut milk after cooking.

Adjust the cooking time based on the thickness of your chicken pieces and the recommended pressure cooking guidelines for safety.
