This is the best Butter Chicken! And it’s so easy to make!
Instant Pot Butter Chicken, also known as murgh makhani, is restaurant-quality. It’s one of the most popular recipes on my blog and with good reason. This butter chicken dish is the perfect blend of tomato flavor, creaminess, and masala. Over the past couple of days, I’ve eaten butter chicken for breakfast, lunch, and dinner… and I haven’t gotten tired of it. And now that it’s all gone, I actually miss it! Trust me, this dish is so good that you’re going to want to put this on your weekly dinner menu rotation. It’s so simple to make this restaurant-style dish right at home. The instant pot simplifies the cooking process so much that you can have this done from prep to plate in thirty minutes, and a good chunk of that time is hands-off. Amazing, right? That’s less time than it takes to get takeout.
