Butter Chicken is an Indian curry dish made of chicken coated in a well-seasoned tomato gravy that includes butter and cream. Chicken is marinated in yogurt, spices, garlic, and ginger, then later cooked in a tandoor, but it can also be pan-fried, grilled, or oven roasted. After that, it is tossed with the simmered, richly seasoned tomato sauce.
