Butter Chicken is one of the most popular curries in the world and yet happens to be one of the easiest!
The chicken is incredibly tender and injected with flavour from a yogurt marinade, and the Butter Chicken sauce is so ridiculously delicious, especially with fresh naan!

This we can guarantee very much authentic. Our #chinese #butterchicken tastes exactly like the one served in the restaurant (the way i remember it). This one is a #keeper.NOTE:1. Marinating is optional.2. Use equal ratio of flour, corn flour and rice flour depending on the size or amount of your chicken strips.3. Best use small chillies or bird eyed chillies. The amount of chillies is depending on how much heat one can take. The sauce however will balance the heat nicely.#heirloom #familyrecipe #protein #chicken #dinner #breakfast #yummy #tasty #lunch #cubedchicken #dicedchicken #ayam #ayambutter #restaurant #hawker #streetfood #brunch #homemade #chinesefood #chinese #asian
