As the chilly fall nights settle in, there's nothing quite like a warm, comforting meal to bring everyone together. Butter chicken is the perfect dish for those evenings when you want to share deliciousness and good vibes with your loved ones. Let’s dive into this easy recipe that’s sure to become a favorite!


 Ingredients


- 1 Chicken Breast

- ½ cup plain Greek yogurt

- 1 can diced tomatoes

- ½ lemon (juice only)

- ½ diced yellow onion

- 1 tablespoon ghee

- 1 handful of cashews

- 1 tablespoon tomato paste

- 1 tablespoon garlic paste

- 1 tablespoon ginger paste

- 2 tablespoons garam masala

- 1 tablespoon turmeric powder

- 1 tablespoon cumin

- 1 tablespoon cardamom


 Step 1: Marinate the Chicken


Start by cutting your chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. In a bowl, mix the chicken with the Greek yogurt and all the seasonings: garam masala, turmeric, cumin, cardamom, and a sprinkle of salt. Let it marinate for at least four hours (or overnight for even better flavor!). 

 Step 2: Cook the Chicken


Heat a pan over medium-high heat and add a tablespoon of ghee until it melts completely. Add your marinated chicken to the pan, cooking it until it’s about 80% done. Once cooked, remove the chicken and set it aside in a separate bowl.


Step 3: Create the Sauce


In the same pan, toss in the diced onion, diced tomatoes, cashews, tomato paste, garlic paste, and ginger paste. Stir everything together on medium-low heat for about five minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Then, blend this mixture using a blender or a hand blender until it’s smooth and creamy.


Step 4: Combine and Finish


Return the chicken to the pan with the sauce, squeezing in the juice from half a lemon. Stir everything together until well combined and heated through.


Step 5: Serve and Enjoy!


Butter chicken is best enjoyed with warm naan, fluffy jasmine rice, or both! Gather around the table and enjoy the warmth and richness of this delicious meal with your favorite people.


So, get cozy and treat yourself to this delightful butter chicken recipe—it’s the perfect comfort food for those crisp fall evenings!
