Excellent recipe!! Perfect with naan bread. Following other suggestions, I decreased the butter to 1/2 cup and only used 1 1/2 tsp. salt. Very tasty!

This recipe is excellent! I added a pinch of ginger powder and cinnamon. Also, I just made it on the stove - excluded the oven part. This recipe rocks!!

Wow, this was so good! The short ingredient list drew me in but also made me a little hesitant. Boy was I ever wrong! This was our first attempt at an Indian dish and we couldn't get enough! This makes 4 very large portions, and we are looking forward to the leftovers tonight! I know it's butter chicken, but small changes make a world of difference in cutting back fat. We used 1/2 cup butter, 2 tbsp garlic, 2 cups heavy cream, 1 small can of evaporated milk and the rest milk. Some store-bought naan and a pot of basmati rice rounded out our meal. There many steps and quite a few dishes to wash, but the end result is worth it! Next time we might add some tomato paste to thicken the sauce. But otherwise the recipe is perfect, as is! Thank you!

LOVE it! I did the lower fat version and it was delicious. It satisified my need for butter chicken! I did, however, curdle my milk. But that wasn't the recipe's fault. I was cooking in an electric skillet and it's hard to control the temperature as well.

This was really great! My husband liked it too. I read some of the reviews, and decided to leave out 1 cup of the heavy cream and leave out the salt. I did not have the tandoori masala, so I took one of the tips someone posted and substituted 1TBS of curry instead. I will definately make this recipe again. Very good!

My family and I liked this. It was rich, but worth the calorie splurge. I really liked that the recipe was simple and uncomplicated, yet produced a dish very complex in flavor. Thumbs up!

Very tasty and very simple! I followed the directions as they were originally written, but after reading others say they reduced the salt, I bought unsalted butter but added in salt per the directions. The only other change I made was the garum masala - I couldn't find it. I looked all over the supermarket and it was no where to be found. I will have to visit an Indian foods market soon to buy some I guess. So, since I didn't have any, I added in some cumin in its place. The dish came out wonderful and everyone at the table raved. Thanks for sharing this delightful dinner!

Great recipe! And so much easier than any other Butter chicken recipe I've found. I used the reduced butter and evaporated skim milk version and it still turned out perfect. I'll keep this recipe for years

this is very delicious. I substitute coconut milk for cream/evaporated milk. I also throw in peas and broccoli to add some veggies.

I've never made butter chicken before but sure love to eat it! I thought I'd give it a try for company we were having but realized too late that I didn't have garam masala! I concoted my own with indian masala and other substitute ideas I found online. I was really worried and had my husband on standby to order pizza, but it turned out fabulous! I used the lower calorie option provided and made all in one pot as per another review. I LOVE the simplicity of this recipe and the taste was sooo good! just had the leftovers for lunch! yum!

I found this quite tasty! I only used 1/2 cup of butter and instead of cream, I used regular milk and thickened it with cornstarch. I also used about 12 large roma tomoatos instead of the sauce because my house is overflowing with them at this time of year. I found the heat temperature just right - spicy but not painful:o)

I made this dish today and it was absolutely fantastic! It tasted exactly like the Butter Chicken that I order from my favorite Indian Restaurant, Bombay Cafe. I used the lower fat option the original writer of the recipe suggested with a few minor modifications. Since I had a 1/4 cup of heavy cream in the fridge, I added that along with the can of evap. I used only one stick of butter in the sauce (1/2 cup). The butter that I used was KerryGold Pure Irish Butter which has great flavor. I only used 1 and 1/2 tsp of salt instead of 2 as previous reviewers suggested. I used 2 pounds of boneless skinless chicken thighs cut up instead of chicken breasts because I prefer dark meat and I added 1 packet of Equal sweetner to the sauce which really brought out even more flavor. For those who had a hard time finding the different Masala seasonings, try going to an Indian grocery store. That is where I found them. I used the Garam Masala mix by Shan. It was $1.99 for a small box and I used the Tandoori barbeque Masala mix by MDH which was $1.59 for a box. Not that it should make a difference, but for those that might be interested, I used a Vidalia onion which is a little sweeter than a plain yellow onion, minced garlic in a jar by Spice World, the 15oz can of tomato sauce by Contadina and for the evaporated milk, I used the Carnation brand. Finally, I have a Nu-Wave oven so after seasoning the chicken chunks with the Tandoori Masala mixture, I put them in the Nu-wave and cooked them fo

Thank you!!!!! The recipe was easy on my budget and tasted just like the restaurant's. I really think the tandoori masala was the key ingredient and I also made the basmati rice to go along with it. I used the lower fat/calorie version and couldn't really taste a huge difference. My husband's appetite thanks you as well!
