Indian Butter Chicken Recipe
4-6 servings
2 tablespoons peanut oil
4-6 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut in large chunks
2 tablespoons butter ghee or regular butter
2 teaspoons garam masala
2 teaspoons sweet paprika
2 teaspoons ground coriander
1 tablespoon grated fresh green ginger
1/2 teaspoon chili powder (more or less to taste)
1 cinnamon stick
6 cardamom pods, bruised
1 small can tomato puree
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 cup plain yogurt
1/2 cup cream
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Heat a wok until really hot, add 1 Tbsp oil.
Add half the chicken and stir-fry for about 4 minutes or until chicken is a nice color. Remove to plate. Add extra oil and cook remaining chicken. Remove from wok. Reduce heat and add the butter. When melted add all of the spices and stir-fry until fragrant- about 1 minute. Return chicken to wok and stir to coat with the spices. Add the tomato and sugar and simmer for 15 minutes- stir occasionally. Add the yogurt, cream and lemon juice and simmer for 5 minutes or until the sauce thickens a bit. Serve over rice.
