Matty's Kitchen Mains
Butter Chicken
Ingredients
Marinade
Sauce
Steps
- Combine all ingredients for the chicken marinade in a bowl. Marinate between 30 minutes and overnight.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry chicken until browned, working in batches, about 3 minutes. Set aside.
- Heat ghee in the same pan, and fry the onions while scraping the bottom of the pan.
- Add garlic and ginger, sauté for 1 minute. Add coriander, cumin, and garam masala. Toast spices for 30 seconds.
- Add crushed tomatoes, chili powder, and salt. Simmer for 10–15 minutes until sauce thickens.
- Scoop mixture into a tall container, and blend smooth using an immersion blender.
- Pour the mixture back into the pan. Add heavy cream, sugar, and kasoori methi to the sauce. Add chicken back and cook until sauce is thickened to your liking.
- Serve with naan and over basmati rice.
