In this hands-on at-home cook-along, you’ll make Chef Tess’ version of the incredible Butter Chicken—rich, warmly spiced, and melt-in-your-mouth tender thanks to the magic of the Instant Pot® (or any other electric multi-cooker). You will also create soft, pillowy homemade naan to go with it. This class is perfect for learning how to create a quick, nutritious, economical summer meal while building your culinary confidence and repertoire. Handy Instant Pot® tips and tricks for use and care will also be shared! Come join the fun! Equipment Needs: Instant Pot® or any other electric multi-cooker. Stand mixer with dough hook attachment is recommended for the naan. If a stand mixer is not available, dough can be made by hand. More info will be provided in the ingredient list packet.
Participants will receive a list of ingredients for the cook-along recipe 3-5 days in advance of the class to allow time for shopping and prep. This class will take place on Zoom; a free on-line software. Participants will receive instructions on how to access the class prior to it starting.

Tess Georgakopoulos, also known as “Chef Tess—Culinary Artist”, has been cooking and baking for well over 45 years since she was roughly 6 years old. Born into a Greek family, the art of cooking traditional meals using ones own hands and creativity was and continues to be an expression of love in her home. Her father was also a trained chef who brought the magic of food to life in another form on the weekends as they cooked elaborate family meals together. As an accomplished cook and baker and always working towards expanding her culinary repertoire, Tess enjoys experimenting in her test kitchen daily creating new recipes, creative culinary techniques and building “Gold Standard” culinary experiences for communities across Minnesota and beyond. Tess is proficient and experienced in creating cook-along experiences and curriculum for conventional cooking, baking, pressure-cooking, air frying, pizza making, Mediterranean Cooking, and meal preparation as well. More recently, she has expanded her creativity and experience in the creation of Cooking Master Classes! A Culinary Artist indeed!
