Butter Chicken


Butter chhicken masala
Legend has it that Butter Chicken was hastily prepared by a Delhi Eatery chef post dinner time for a harried VIP customer who wanted "some" Chicken dish.
 The chef had only half of a Tandoori Chicken which he tossed with liberal amounts of butter, tomato and garam masalas to come up with the earliest version of "Butter Chicken".
He later improvised to make this a regular feature of the menu.
We are preparing for 750gm chicken.

Marinade 1:

1. 3 eggs
2. 4-5 tsp corn flour
3. 1and 1/2 tsp salt
4. 1/2 tsp oil
5. litte bit of bakking soda

Marinade 2:


1. 2 tsp Dhania powder
2. 1 and 1/2 tsp jeera powder

Take butter in the pan to fry chicken so the quantity of butter must not be less.
Fry single pieces of chicken in the butter and then drain it don't waste the mixture left behind of marinade 1.
