Butter chicken

Randomly saw this on facebook while browsing. Showed my hub and we decided to try this for dinner the next evening. Looks so gooooood! 😋😋

As the coronavirus situation still on the high side, he went to help me grab the spices so I can marinate them before cooking for dinner. Great job done as all the spices were bought correctly! Bravo right? 😅

I only managed to marinate it for a short 3 hours+ as its really an impromptu decision to cook them. I believed marinating overnight will be even more fragrant. All u need is sautee the marinated chicken til they are browned nicely. 

Adding in the gravy seasonings and leave it to simmer til chicken are soft. Oh ya I added potato as Hub requested for them. A very simple and quick dish to make! 

Hub gave thumbs up tho a little spicy for the 2 boys. I substitute with yogurt and milk instead of using cream. We sprinkle more cayenne pepper prior to eating! Definitely goes very well with a piece of naan. Perhaps I should work on that too! 💪🏻
