There’s right enough spice in this butter chicken recipe to make it super flavorful and with the addition of coconut cream will add that super silkiness that is going to be a family pleaser for sure.
Melt the butter and sauté the diced onion, crushed garlic for 2 minutes.
Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces and coat with the ginger, turmeric, cinnamon, chili and salt spice mix.
Sauté the chicken in the onion mix stirring continuously till browned for 5 minutes.
Add the tomato paste, coconut cream and garam masala and simmer for another 5 minutes. Cook no longer than 10 minutes to prevent the chicken from becoming dry.
Serve on a bed of fluffy rice topped with fresh corriander.
NOTE: To make this a lighter sauce you can use coconut milk if you prefer. It may make it just a bit thinner in consistency.
Serve with naan bread, poppadum's or freshly chopped tomatoes.
