How to Make Butter Chicken Curry in a Hurry

Butter chicken is one of the most delicious Indian curry. Easy to make and great in taste. You can have have it with naan or rice.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• I pound of skinless boneless chicken cubes
• Butter chicken masala( parampra butter chicken)
• cilantro
• Butter/oil
• yogurt
• ginger

1. Marinate one pound of skinless , boneless chicken in cilantro, ginger and yogurt paste. Let it Marinate for maybe 20 minutes.
   Then cook the chicken pieces partially in butter/ oil whichever you prefer. I have tried grilling chicken pieces too. it works equally well,(that way it becomes low calorie too)

2. To make curry sauce, follow the directions on the packet,(butter chicken masala can be bought at any ethnic Indian grocery store) I use half a packet in one cup of water, and let it cook for 3-5 minutes. Then add cooked/ grilled chicken pieces in the sauce, let it simmer may be 2-3 minutes, to make it extra creamy you can add half a cup either heavy cream or cream of coconut. top it with chopped cilantro.

3. Top it with chopped cilantro, curry is ready.
