Low Carb Instant Pot "Dump" Style Thai Coconut Curry
This Keto Instant Pot recipe is creamy, coconutty, spicy, and filling.

This is a great low carb instant pot recipe for weeknight meals since it is simple and straightforward. Dumping all the ingredients into an Instant Pot basket helps to save time, but the result is fantastic. Add this to your list of favorite Keto pressure cooker recipes!
What is a "dump" style Instant Pot recipe?
A dump style Instant Pot recipe is one where all the ingredients are meant to be added at the very beginning and cooked together for a beautiful finished dish. No need to worry about multiple steps!
Do I have to use chicken breasts?
No, feel free to use chicken thighs or pork tenderloins. If you would like to use shrimp, lessen the cooking time to about 15 minutes.
What kind of curry powder should I use?
There is a vast array of curry powders out there. However, this recipe uses and recommends Madras curry powder for its spicy heat and blend of spices. It has a full-bodied flavor with the right balance of turmeric. You can always adjust by adding more curry powder to your taste.
Why is there so little chicken broth in this recipe?
The types of vegetables and the chicken breast release a lot of water. Once the meal has cooked, there should be plenty of liquid in the pot, especially after the coconut milk is added, it will be a perfect consistency. The 14 fluid ounces of coconut milk referenced in the recipe is one can of coconut milk.

Am I reading this correctly? 8 servings with only 4 ounces of chicken breast total?

Has anyone used this without an instant pot? How do you convert it?

Wow! This is really good! My hubby who hates curry loved it. I added 1tsp of xanthium fun with the coconut milk. It made it a little thicker. Just so savory!

This is a question. Is it necessary to pre cook the squash as stated in the ingredient list?

No. If you did, it would be overcooked (and it's yellow squash, not summer squash).

This recipe definitely comes out more liquids than a normal curry but that’s ok because it was full of flavor and all that delicious juice soaked into my cauliflower rice beautifully.

I'm making this now and I'm going to put some xanthium fun in with the coconut milk to thicken it. Thanks for the review

This stuff is delish! I think next time(cause I’m for sure repeating this) I will put chicken and seasoning in, cook for 20 min then release the pressure, add veggies, cook for 10. The veggies are just so mushy when they are in the entire time. We ate this over cauliflower rice.
