Mondo's Kickass Butter Chicken Curry Recipe

Butter Chicken Curry

Ingredients

• 2 tbsp onion powder
• 2 tbsp garlic powder
• 6 tablespoons butter
• 3 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
• 3/4 teaspoon ginger
• 3 cups heavy whipping cream
• 3 cups tomato puree
• 3 tbsp garam masala
• 3 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 small package Sazon Goya
• 2 tsp chili powder
• cayenne powder (to taste, for spiciness)
• chicken
• rice
• naan bread / flat bread

Instructions

• Heat butter in a large skillet or pan over medium heat. Add onions, garlic, ginger, chili powder, and salt. Cook for another 2-3 minutes.

• Add tomato puree, sazon goya, and garam masala to the pan, stirring well to combine with the mixture. Cook for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

• Add the chicken pieces to the pan and cook until they are browned on all sides. Make sure the chicken is cooked through.

• Reduce the heat to low, and slowly pour in the heavy whipping cream. Stir well to combine the cream with the spices and chicken. Simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Don't cook this on high because the cream will explode if you do.

• Stir in the lemon juice, and let the curry simmer for another 5 minutes.

• Taste and adjust the salt and seasoning according to your preference.

• Serve the butter chicken curry with steamed rice or naan bread.

• Note: This simplified version does not include some traditional ingredients like yogurt, fenugreek leaves, and various spices used in a more elaborate recipe.
