Easy Butter Chicken

This Easy Butter Chicken recipe is for beginners who are not confident in making their own Butter Chicken sauce, or for those people who want a quick fix of their creamy Indian cuisine.

In our family, we do have a thing called “Butter Chicken Thursday!” which means we buy Butter Chicken, Naan, and Samosas from our local Indian Takeaway. We love it as it tastes authentic, and we crave for it most of the time. We don’t do it every Thursday anymore, but from time to time, yes we do!
