Butter Chicken Recipe
Butter Chicken
Serves four
INGREDIENTS:
2 pounds boneless chicken breasts, cut into 2-inch pieces
1 onion, grated (if you like more sauce, use 2 onions)
1 teaspoon ginger paste
1 teaspoon garlic paste
3/4 cup tomato puree (tomato ketchup works great, too)
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 cup of butter (1 stick)
3/4 to 1 cup sour cream
1 cup chopped cilantro (yum!)
Salt to taste
Prepare the Sauce:
Melt butter in frying pan. Add grated onion, and fry until golden brown. Add the ginger and garlic pastes, and continue frying for one minute. Add the tomato puree or ketchup; mix, and stir for a minute. Add the cilantro, salt, and chili powder. Fry for additional two to three minutes. Turn down heat, and add sour cream, stirring constantly. (Don't let it boil.) Cook for a few minutes, and then remove from heat.
Bake the Chicken:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Arrange chicken pieces in ovenproof dish. Pour the sauce over the chicken. Place in preheated oven, and bake for 20 to 30 minutes, depending on how "done" you like your chicken. (If you prefer your food a bit overdone, cook for 30 minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit.)
