Butter chicken, also known as murgh makhani, is a popular Indian dish that is loved by people all over the world. It is made with tender chicken pieces cooked in a creamy, buttery tomato sauce. The dish is flavored with a blend of aromatic spices and served with basmati rice or naan bread.

Here is a recipe to make butter chicken at home:

Ingredients:

500 grams boneless chicken, cut into bite-sized pieces

1 cup plain yogurt

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 tablespoon ginger paste

1 tablespoon garlic paste

1 teaspoon cumin powder

1 teaspoon coriander powder

1 teaspoon red chili powder

1 teaspoon garam masala

Salt, to taste

4 tablespoons butter

1 cup tomato puree

1 cup heavy cream

1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional)

Instructions:

In a large bowl, mix together the yogurt, lemon juice, ginger paste, garlic paste, cumin powder, coriander powder, red chili powder, garam masala, and salt. Add the chicken pieces and marinate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight in the refrigerator.

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the marinated chicken on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until cooked through.

In a large pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the tomato puree and cook for 2-3 minutes, until the sauce starts to thicken.

Add the baked chicken pieces to the pan and stir to coat with the sauce. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a simmer.

Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5-7 minutes, until the sauce has thickened and the chicken is cooked through.

Garnish with chopped cilantro, if using, and serve hot with basmati rice or naan bread.
