Butter Chicken is a rich and creamy Indian dish that tantalizes the taste buds with its marinated chicken simmered in a luscious tomato-based sauce, infused with aromatic spices like cardamom, cumin, and garam masala. Originating from Delhi, this beloved delicacy combines tender, grilled chicken with a velvety blend of butter and cream, creating a satisfying and indulgent meal.
