Butter chicken or murgh makhani is one of the most ordered dishes in Indian restaurants across the world, especially here in the UK. it is arguable on par with the famous chicken tikka masala, and it's equally as good. Butter chicken is not a curry you'd want every day, because this puppy has a lot of butter in it, and I meant A LOT. That being said, butter chicken is a fantastic flavourful curry for a weekend treat.
The dish itself was created in 1947 by the founders of moti mahal restaurant in Delhi, India as a way to use up leftover chicken tikka, in a mildly spiced tomato sauce rich with butter and cream. Let me tell you guys and gals, its is HEAVENLY! if you have never tried butter chicken, then do so now. The secret to a good butter chicken is marinating the chicken over night. that gives the spices the time needed to really permeate the chicken and make it super tasty. I also advise that you blitz the base sauce and pas through a seive. This makes the sauce creamier and much more luxurious.
