Shans Butter Chicken Masala Sux.
If you want to make it the authentic way then here is a tried and tested recipe of mine.
Dice chicken into cubes then marinate them with Tikka Masala.
Cook the chicken in the oven/grill
Make gravy with Onions and Tomato paste and Ginger and Garlic, add a bit of Tikka Masala to this and some fresh cream and then add the grillied chicken pieces to it and cook for 5 minutes.
Re: butter chicken recipe needed
njavaeed thanks so much for the recipe. I plan to make it when my parents come to visit but i was wondering if this can be made ahead like a day before? I would like to spend more time with them and less in the kitchen.

Hey this recipe sounds fairly easy to make... but these are chikken tikkas not butter chicken right?
Re: butter chicken recipe needed
Ira you can make it a day before it will be perfactly fine
Re: butter chicken recipe needed
I tried teh recipe listed by njavaeed and i can say i finally made butter chicken the way i wanted to. It tasted like what i had at Sabri Nihari rest in Chicago and every single person who ate it, complemented me. So thanks for posting the recipe njavaeed and Afshi for saying she had tried it.
I would like to state htat i didnt use exact measurements listed in the recipe. Since i was making a greater quantity, i eyeballed my ingredients and also added some tandoori masala (the Rajah brand) to the gravy for an extra kick.
Re: butter chicken recipe needed
shay, i used heavy whipping cream. You can find it in the dairy section in cartons.
