Pressure Cooker Chicken Tikka Masala

The spicy heat from the cayenne pepper in this dish is cooled down by the addition of Greek yogurt and cream. Using smoked paprika in the spice blend in this recipe imparts irresistible smoky notes to the final dish. Serve this Pressure Cooker Chicken Tikka Masala over a bed of fragrant basmati rice.
