Butter Chicken

Butter chicken, also known as Murgh Makhani, is a popular Indian dish made with tender chicken cooked in a creamy tomato-based sauce.

Ingredients - Serves 4

In a bowl, marinate the chicken with yogurt, lemon juice, ginger-garlic paste, garam masala, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a pan over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook until it is browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the chopped onion and cook until it becomes translucent.
Add the tomato puree and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Reduce the heat to low and add the heavy cream. Stir well to combine.
Add the cooked chicken back to the pan and simmer for 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Crush the kasuri methi between your palms and sprinkle it over the butter chicken. Stir well.
Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and serve hot with naan or rice.
