Instructions
  1. Mix all marinade ingredients in a bowl and then add the chicken. Let marinade at least 15 minutes, or up to overnight.
  2. In the Instant Pot, select the Saute setting and heat the coconut oil. Add the chicken and marinade and smooth into a single layer to cook for 3 minutes. Stir and cook another 3 minutes.
  3. Pour in the tomato sauce and 1/2 cup coconut milk. Stir. Secure the lid, make sure the vent is sealed, and set Pressure Cook or Manual for 10 minutes at high pressure.
  4. After the ten minutes, allow the pot to vent naturally for 10 minutes more, and then release the excess steam.
  5. Press Cancel and switch back to Saute. Stir in the remaining 1/2 cup coconut milk and cook for 5 minutes to thicken. If you like your curry thicker (like me) put the cold water and corn starch in a cup, stir it up, and pour it into the instant pot. Stir and it should thicken up nicely.
  6. Serve on Basmati rice and with a Naan bread!
