My husband and myself love Indian food this recipe is awesome!!! We spiced it up a little with red pepper and added just a dash of sugar.....also I did not have fresh tomatoes so I used 2 cans of petite diced with green chiles. Serve this up with some Basmati rice and mmm..mmm..mmm We look forward to making this again!!! Thanks

omg we loved this recipe! the only thing i did differntly was i followed the suggestion to add one cup of cream, but only half a cup of butter. and i cooked the chicken seperately, seasoned with salt and garam masala as it cooked. Then i stirred it in and let it simmer for about 20 more minutes. Too delicious!

Some Indian recipes are too spice-filled for my tastes, or just have flavors that are totally unfamiliar to me, but my family & I thought this recipe was just perfect. I followed the suggestions to use plain yogurt instead of cream and I added more butter. It was delicious! (And not too strange for those who haven't had a lot of Indian food.) Plus: it was easy to make!

Love the butter chicken at restaurants, and therefore disappointed with the recipe. It was very difficult to get rid of the tomato taste, despite placing extra amounts of sugar and spice and butter to mask the taste.

I have made this recipe soooo many times and variations.My family loves it, I prefer to use mushrooms instead of the green pepper and 2 tins of chopped tomatoes and not fresh ones, I always leave it to cook for an extra hour as this allows the sauce to thicken and condense......my 11y.o daughter(who hates spice) is now totally addicted to this recipe and would gladly eat it every second day!!!! All I can really say is that if you take the time to tweak it to your own tastes this is an absolute ripper of a dish,mmmmmmmmm!!!!!

For the amount of time we had to put into it (not much), this was an adequate Indian dish. Unfortunately, I did not read the reviews beforehand and made the mistake of subbing half and half for heavy whip - the result was a watery sauce that was almost like salsa - very tomato-y. I found the amount of spice to be just fine as called for by the recipe, but I was disappointed with the consistancy. Next time (if there is one), I'll use a few less tomatoes and heavy whip, and maybe a touch more butter.

I had many problems with this recipe. It was WAY too bland and has WAY too many tomatoes. This was nothing like any Indian food I have had out. The recipe, as is, is terrible. Luckily (and after an extra 1 hour of time) I saved my recipe by added 5X the amount of spice called for (YES, 5X!!!!) and I tripled the amount of cream. You have to do this to make up for the overwhelming taste of pureed tomatoes. Wow. This was really something. I will not make this recipe again. Sorry!

This was easy, and a one pot meal if you ignore the food processor. Great for an introduction to Indian food if you want to expose your family to new culture.

A really great recipe! Prep time is under 15 mins. I served it with fresh pita bread on the side. Yummy!

I gave this recipe 4 stars since it doesn't taste any mugh makhani I've ever had. That said, it's a tasty and simple introduction to Indian food. I made a half recipe (which could easily serve 4 if served over rice with a veggie side) to start. Instead of fresh tomatoes, I used 1 14.5 oz can of diced tomatoes with jalapenos and 1 8 oz can of tomato sauce. I doubled the garlic and chili powder. I also added some frozen peas halfway through. Recipe was still on the mild side, heat-wise, but had a great taste. Leftovers were even better! My only other complaint would be that the recipe is fairly oily. I'd scale back on the amount of oil called for.

I wasn't too impressed by this dish. I thought the pureed tomatoes and green pepper made the dish too watered down. I wanted it to be creamier and it wasn't and by time you ad the cream, it's too late to really change anything because all those tomatoes are already in there. I thought it didn't have that much flavor either. I probably won't make this again, but if I did, I think I would use half the amount of tomatoes.
