EASY INDIAN BUTTER CHICKEN
This is a recipe I have perfected over the years and passed onto many others. The sauce is perfect when creamy and not too thick or too thin. The level of salt and spices can be suited to your taste. Garam and tandoori masala can be found in the ethnic aisle of your grocery store.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Melt a few tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in onion and garlic, and cook slowly until the onion caramelizes to a dark brown, about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile melt the remaining butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat along with the tomato sauce, heavy cream, salt, cayenne pepper, and garam masala. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to medium-low; cover, and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Then stir in caramelized onions.
- While the sauce is simmering, toss cubed chicken breast with vegetable oil until coated, then season with tandoori masala and spread out onto a baking sheet.
- Bake chicken in preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 12 minutes. Once done, add the chicken to the sauce and simmer for 5 minutes before serving.

5 INGREDIENT BUTTER CHICKEN YOU CAN MAKE IN 20 MINUTES

- Prep the Chicken: Cut the chicken into bite-size pieces. Let me be honest here, you can skip this step if you want. The only reason I do this is because traditionally butter chicken is cut. If you prefer cooking whole pieces of chicken and cutting them as you eat, go for it.
- Make the Marinade: Stir together the 2 teaspoons olive oil and curry powder. This ensures that the chicken gets evenly coated with the curry powder. If you just plop the curry in, sometimes some pieces get a lot of curry while others don’t get much at all. Place the chicken in a medium bowl. Add the curry-oil mixture. Stir together to coat. Note: You can do this right before you cook dinner or up to 24 hours in advance. If prepping the night before, cover the bowl and refrigerate.
- Slice the Onion and Cook: Cut the onion in half from stem to tip. Then cut into thin slices. Heat one teaspoon olive oil in a nonstick skillet until it shimmers but doesn't smoke. Add the onion. Cook, stirring frequently, until soft. Add the sauce. Reduce heat to low and allow sauce to simmer while you cook the chicken. If the sauce seems too thick, add a splash (1/4 cup) water.
- Cook the Chicken: Heat remaining olive oil in a large nonstick frying pan. For cut chicken: Add the chicken, cook, stirring frequently, until no pink spots remain, about 5 minutes. For whole boneless thighs or breasts: Place chicken into hot pan. Cook for three minutes. Turn. Cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center. Cooking time varies depending on the thickness of the chicken.
