Creamy Butter Chicken

1.In a bowl, combine yogurt, lemon juice, ginger paste, garlic paste, turmeric powder, chili powder, garam masala, ground cumin, and ground coriander to make a marinade.

2.Cut the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces and add them to the marinade. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.

3.In a large pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken pieces and cook until they are browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

4.Stir in the tomato puree and simmer for 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to blend together.

5.Pour in the heavy cream and continue to simmer for another 10 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.

6.Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves and serve hot with rice or naan bread.

7.Enjoy your creamy and flavorful Butter Chicken!
