Add all of the ingredients to an instant pot, secure the lid, close the pressure valve and cook for 5 minutes at high pressure.
Naturally release pressure (or NPR for 10 minutes, then release pressure).
Using two forks, shred the chicken right into the curry (or you can remove the chicken and cut it into chunks if you prefer)
Garnish with cilantro and serve with basmati rice if desired.

Notes
*You can use chicken breast instead of thighs. Keep the same cooking time and do a full natural release.You can also add frozen peas and potatoes to the curry if you'd like. I peel a couple of potatoes, leave them whole at the top of the pot and when it's done, I cut the potatoes in the pot and mix them in.
