Set your pressure cooker to sauté mode and add the oil. Once hot, add the chopped onion and cook until softened.
Add the chicken pieces and season with salt and pepper.
Stir in the ground cumin, red pepper flakes, minced garlic, and garam masala until the chicken is coated.
Add the butter, tomato paste, and lemon juice. Stir everything together.
Pour in the chicken broth and stir to combine, scraping up any bits from the bottom of the pot.
Cancel the sauté function. Secure the lid, set the valve to sealing, and pressure cook on high for 15 minutes.
Once the cooking time is complete, perform a quick release of the pressure and carefully remove the lid.
Stir in the heavy cream until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
Serve the butter chicken over a bed of cooked rice and garnish with fresh cilantro, if desired.
