Who can give a authentic recipe for Butter Chicken???!

This is quite a big undertaking! I wish you best of luck, I am sure you will be a success!. If you have a background in catering or cooking for large crowds then it should be no problem!. Otherwise, I suggest you make it in batches --- this may take longer (unless you have kitchen facilities where you could make several batches simultaneously) but you will maintain & control the overall taste & flavor of the dish!.

You can buy most of your supplies at a Costco, BJs, Sam's Club!.!.!.!.!.!.
