THE BEST BUTTER CHICKEN
Butter chicken originated in a Delhi restaurant when the chef was looking for a way to serve unsold tandoori chicken from the night before. He created a mild tomato curry spiced with cinnamon, cardamom and cloves and finished with butter. It was an instant classic that we love to serve alongside basmati rice and plenty of naan to soak up the fragrant sauce.

Steps:
- For the marinade: Whisk together the yogurt, salt, ginger and garlic in a large bowl until combined. Toss the chicken in the seasoned yogurt marinade until evenly coated. Wrap tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 3 hours and up to 24. (Overnight works best.)
- For the sauce: Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a large Dutch oven or wide heavy pot over medium heat. Toss the fenugreek seeds, bay leaves, cardamom, cinnamon and clove in the butter and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly darker and very fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the onions, season with 1 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden and beginning to caramelize, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the ginger and garlic and cook, stirring, until very fragrant and the ginger starts to turn golden and sticks to the bottom of the pot, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garam masala and chili powder and cook, stirring occasionally, until very fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, breaking them up into pieces with a spoon, and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has reduced by half and the tomatoes are very tender, about 30 minutes. Discard the bay leaves and cinnamon stick (but leave the other whole spices).
- Let the hot sauce cool for about 5 minutes or so, then transfer it to a blender filling no more than halfway. Remove the center cap from the lid and place it on the blender. Cover the lid with a kitchen towel to catch splatters, and pulse until smooth. (If your blender is small, you may need to work in batches.) Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and the cream to the blender and puree until creamy. Pour into a clean pot and bring to a simmer. Season with salt.
- Meanwhile, arrange a rack directly under the broiler and preheat to high. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and set a wire rack inside.
- Arrange the chicken in a single layer on the rack. Broil until the chicken starts to brown in spots, 3 to 6 minutes per side (it will not be cooked through). Remove from the broiler. When cool enough to handle, cut the chicken into 1-inch pieces. Add the chicken to the simmering sauce, cover and cook until the chicken is cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Stir in the cilantro. Serve with rice and naan alongside.
AUTHENTIC CHICKEN MAKHANI (INDIAN BUTTER CHICKEN)
This is a family recipe of a coworker of mine that is from India. Perfect combination of spice and heat, and the chicken comes out tender, not dry. Some ingredients, however, can only be found at an Indian grocery store, but well worth the visit.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, add chicken, Ginger-garlic paste, Red chilli powder, Salt to taste, Turmeric powder, Coriander powder, Cumin Powder, Garam masala, Chicken masala powder, and Yogurt.
- Stir mixture well, and marinate the chicken in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
- In a large pan or wok, medium-high heat the oil and butter and fry the chicken pieces (set aside the marinate) just until slightly under-done, then add the marinate to the pan and cook for 2 more minutes, or until hot. When done, pour mixture into a different bowl, covered, and set aside.
- In the same pan add 1 tablespoon oil, 1 tablespoon butter, onion, and once the onions are starting to soften, add tomatoes and cashew nuts. Let this cook for about 3 minutes more.
- Add garlic paste, salt to taste, malt vinegar, sugar, garam masala powder and chilli powder, and just enough water for desired consistency. Evenly mix, turn the heat on low, and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes, adding more water if needed, and stirring on occassion.
- Pour this hot mixture into a blender or food processor, and blend into a fine puree (please be careful not to burn yourself). If you have an immersion blender, then you can instead blend it in the pan, otherwise, pour the puree back into the original hot pan when done.
- Add remainder of butter, cream, chicken mixture, and fenugreek leaves and let it simmer for at least 5-7 minutes.
- Pour mixture onto a large serving plate, perhaps over rice, garnish it with cream and fenugreek leaves.
- Butter Chicken is ready to be served!

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.

AUTHENTIC BUTTER CHICKEN
This recipe was given to me by an Indian Colleague at work. He is desperately trying to get me out of cooking Indian from a Jar. I played around with his qtys used thighs instead of breasts and added the onions. Even he was pretty impressed with this effort. Its a family favourite now.
