Butter Chicken Recipe!
In the mood for ethnic and Indian food? If so, you must try this Butter Chicken dish. This is my favorite type of dish, so this was a no-brainer recipe! Plus, my kids enjoy eating this curry dish was some store-bought naan. I’ve tried to make naan at home previously and it is never as good. Want to make this delicious recipe as well? If so, you’ll need the following ingredients:
