Love this recipe. It’s super simple but has great flavor. This is a family staple in my home and is made almost weekly. My son loves this. Sometimes I add a little more chili powder and cayenne for a slight more spice but overall the standard recipe is great.

my go to butter chicken recipe. the family can't get enough. If you are feeling wild, make butter chicken nachos with the leftovers... if there are any😊

Loved it! I had to sub a couple of items (ginger powder for the paste/grated and sour cream for the cream). I omitted the cayenne because my kids can’t really handle any heat. Hubby and I both had seconds. The oldest cleared his plate and the twins are all the rice and sauce (they’re picky about meat).

This was a hit! Family and friends loved it. Can even be made a day ahead of time, will taste even better after everything marinated. Served over a bed of rice🥰

This was a hit! I only needed to use half the butter but indulged and used 2 cups of cream. Delicious

My husbad raved about this! It will be a keeper recipe for sure. I used tomato paste and coconut milk instead of tomato sauce and then just a bit of cream at the end. I also added sweet potatos. Delicious!

Taste is ok considering it doesn't taste anything like butter chicken. Would not make again.

Pretty well balanced. Perhaps a little too much cream, but it doesn’t ruin the taste at all not spicy at all, so I’ll be looking at turning it up next time.

The cream ruined it, 473ml! Couldn’t taste any of the spices, looked nothing like the picture, basically creamy chicken.

It was delicious! I added a little curry powder. I also made homemade Naan and Basmatic rice to eat it over. Will definitely make again.

Instead of 2 cups of cream I only added 1 and then 1 cup of coconut milk. It was a hit in our house. Delicious.

Luscious, flavourful, saucy, one of the best butter chicken recipes I’ve tried

Easy to make and very delicious! We added the garnishes of Plain Yogurt, cilantro and lime served with Naan bread and jasmine rice. It made for a great birthday dinner!
