Indian butter chicken (murgh makhani) is one of the BEST chicken recipes! Juicy chicken thighs are marinated in a deliciously spiced yogurt blend. But the real MVP here is this rich and creamy curry sauce – it’s ridiculously good.
Butter chicken is a favorite at Indian restaurants, but after you watch this video you’ll learn how to make butter chicken at home. Hint – it’s easier than you think! While there are many variations to a butter chicken recipe, mine uses kashmiri red chili powder (and other spices) for bold flavor, and cashews (plus butter and cream) for an ultra-creamy and silky sauce. Plus, I’ve got tips in the video to make it dairy-free as well!
Meal prep this butter chicken for the week or freeze it for the future – it’s an amazing dinner recipe you’re sure to love!
