    Ingredients · 15 items ShowHide

    For the chicken:

    • 1 kg boneless chicken thighs or breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
    • 4 tbsp Sanam’s Butter Chicken Spice Mix, divided
    • ½ cup plain yogurt
    • 1 tbsp lemon juice
    • 1 tbsp ginger & garlic paste
    • 1 tbsp cooking oil

    For the sauce:

    • 2 tbsp butter
    • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
    • 1 tbsp ginger & garlic paste
    • 400 g crushed tomatoes or smooth tomato purée
    • ½ cup water, plus more as needed
    • ½ cup heavy cream
    • 1 tsp sugar, optional, to balance the tomatoes
    • Salt, to taste, if needed
    • Fresh coriander, for garnish
    Method · 7 steps ShowHide
    1. Marinate the chicken: Combine the yogurt, 2 tbsp spice mix, lemon juice, ginger & garlic paste, and oil. Add the chicken and coat thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight.
    2. Brown the chicken: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken in batches until lightly browned, about 5–7 minutes per batch. Transfer to a plate; it will finish cooking in the sauce.
    3. Start the sauce: In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 6–8 minutes until soft and golden. Stir in the ginger & garlic paste and cook for 1 minute.
    4. Add the tomatoes and seasoning: Stir in the remaining 2 tbsp spice mix, tomatoes, and water. Simmer for 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally. For a smoother sauce, carefully blend before returning the chicken.
    5. Finish cooking: Return the chicken and any juices to the sauce. Simmer gently for 8–12 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through. Add a splash of water if the sauce becomes too thick.
    6. Make it creamy: Lower the heat and stir in the cream. Warm gently for 2–3 minutes. Taste before adding salt, and add the optional sugar if needed.
    7. Serve: Garnish with fresh coriander and serve hot with naan or basmati rice.

    This is a suggested home-style recipe using Sanam’s spice mix. Cooking times are approximate; chicken should reach 165°F (74°C) at the center.
