With a few simple and easy hacks, you can elevate your butter chicken to delicious new heights and compete with a restaurant quality food at home. Best of all, with a little help from our Classic Butter Chicken kit, you can make this a fun and easy cook! Restaurants marinate the chicken overnight before cooking in a tandoor until it is charred on the outside and succulent on the inside before being stirred into the sauce and then tailoring to taste. If you are short on time, marinate the chicken for 30-40 minutes (not in the fridge). For a traditional serving style, cut the cooked thighs into bite-sized piece and stir back into the sauce and simmer for a bit. I like to serve this dish with some red onions marinated in lemon juice and some salt and hot naans, but you can choose as many or as few of the suggested garnishes as you like.
