A comforting bowl of Butter Chicken, rich and buttery, with tender pieces of chicken enveloped in a creamy, spiced sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound boneless chicken, cut into pieces
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger, minced

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 2 teaspoons garam masala
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • Salt to taste
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, and ginger; sauté until softened and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add chicken pieces to the skillet. Cook until browned on all sides, about 6-8 minutes.
  3. Stir in the tomato sauce, heavy cream, garam masala, turmeric, cumin, and salt. Mix until well combined and chicken is coated.
  4. Let the mixture simmer for 20-30 minutes to thoroughly cook the chicken and thicken the sauce.
