AUTHENTIC BUTTER CHICKEN
This recipe was given to me by an Indian Colleague at work. He is desperately trying to get me out of cooking Indian from a Jar. I played around with his qtys used thighs instead of breasts and added the onions. Even he was pretty impressed with this effort. Its a family favourite now.
