Butter Chicken Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Marinate the Chicken

   In a bowl, combine the chicken thighs, yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, cumin powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well, cover, and let it marinate for at least 1 hour (or overnight in the refrigerator for best results).

2. 2

   Cook the Onions

   In a large pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onions and sauté until they turn golden brown.

3. 3

   Add the Tomato Puree

   Stir in the tomato puree and cook for about 5-7 minutes until it thickens and the oil starts to separate from the mixture.

4. 4

   Cook the Chicken

   Add the marinated chicken to the pan and cook until the chicken is no longer pink, stirring occasionally. About 10-15 minutes.

5. 5

   Add Cream and Fenugreek

   Stir in the heavy cream, fenugreek leaves, and garam masala. Adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper as needed. Simmer for another 5 minutes.

6. 6

   Garnish and Serve

   Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve hot with rice or naan.
