Murg Makhani (Butter Chicken)
Murg Makhani, famously known as Butter Chicken, is a rich and creamy North Indian delicacy made with succulent pieces of tandoori-grilled chicken simmered in a luscious, buttery tomato-based gravy. The dish is mildly spiced yet full of flavor, with a smooth texture and a hint of sweetness that balances the savory elements.

Marinated chicken is first cooked (often tandoor-grilled or pan-seared), then immersed in a sauce made from pureed tomatoes, fresh cream, butter, garlic, ginger, and aromatic spices like garam masala and kasuri methi (dried fenugreek leaves). The result is a velvety, mouth-melting curry with a signature orange hue.

Serving Suggestion:
Pairs beautifully with naan, butter naan, jeera rice, or pulao.
