BEST BUTTER CHICKEN | with the silkiest, creamiest curry sauce

Indian butter chicken (murgh makhani) is one of the BEST chicken recipes! Juicy chicken thighs are marinated in a deliciously spiced yogurt blend. But the real MVP here is this rich and creamy curry sauce - it's ridiculously good. Butter chicken is a favorite at Indian restaurants, but after you watch this video you'll learn how to make butter chicken at home. Hint - it's easier than you think! While there are many variations to a butter chicken recipe, mine uses kashmiri red chili powder (and other spices) for bold flavor, and cashews (plus butter and cream) for an ultra-creamy and silky sauce. Plus, I've got tips in the video to make it dairy-free as well! Meal prep this butter chicken for the week or freeze it for the future - it's an amazing dinner recipe you're sure to love! 🖨 Printable Butter Chicken Recipe: https://downshiftology.com/recipes/butter-chicken/ Sign up for weekly emails (never miss a recipe!): https://mailchi.mp/downshiftology/youtube/ Join the private Facebook group of fellow Downshifters around the world: https://www.facebook.com/groups/downshiftologycommunity/ ► PRODUCTS MENTIONED: Kashmiri Red Chili Powder: https://amzn.to/3ks52F3 Large Cast Iron Pan: https://amzn.to/3EYL5PO Tongs: https://amzn.to/3krW6zK ► ALWAYS IN MY KITCHEN: Counter Stools: http://bit.ly/2tUNvZG Vitamix Blender: https://amzn.to/2NjFp75 Spiralizer: https://amzn.to/2N37WRy Tea Kettle: http://amzn.to/2uuNSMp Utensil Holder: http://bit.ly/2tVfGaH Flour Jars: https://amzn.to/30UZESn Salt Cellar: https://amzn.to/2UUyK9r Knife Set: http://bit.ly/2tUGzMa White Chef's Knife: https://amzn.to/3rwocy9 Cutting Board: https://amzn.to/2Vskgv9 Magnetic Measuring Spoons: https://amzn.to/2YIeKYT Magnetic Measuring Cups: https://amzn.to/3hAJu6A For everything else I use in my videos, check out the SHOP page on my website: https://downshiftology.com/shop/ ► TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 Intro 00:43 Prep the ginger, garlic, and onion 01:25 Dice and marinate the chicken thighs 02:12 American chili powder vs Indian red chili powder 03:15 Cook the marinated chicken 04:04 Make the curry sauce 06:40 Combine the chicken with the curry sauce 07:12 Serve with basmati rice and top with cilantro 07:41 Taste test ► WHAT I'M WEARING Tank Top: https://bit.ly/3Kw4qsO Jeans: http://bit.ly/32Fq7l5 Linen Apron: http://bit.ly/2twA32E The music I use: https://bit.ly/2Ms5nF2 - Great music for YouTubers!
