BUTTER CHICKEN
Also known in India as Murgh Makhani, chicken thighs seasoned with fragrant spices get simmered in a creamy, buttery sauce until tender. Typically made with yogurt, this version uses blended cashews for added flavor and creaminess!

Steps:
- Place the cashews in a small heatproof bowl. Cover with boiling water and let soak 30 minutes, then drain.
- Meanwhile, season the chicken with salt, pepper, 1 teaspoon garam masala and 1/2 teaspoon turmeric. Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large Dutch oven over high heat. Add the chicken in a single layer and brown 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a plate.
- Reduce the heat to medium high and add the remaining 2 tablespoons vegetable oil to the pot. Add the onions, season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, until soft and browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the ginger and garlic and cook, stirring, until golden, about 2 minutes. Add the coriander, cumin, chili powder and remaining 1/2 teaspoon turmeric; cook, stirring and scraping the pot, until the spices are toasted, about 30 seconds.
- Add the tomatoes and tomato paste to the pot. Cook, stirring, until the tomatoes break down, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer the onion-tomato mixture to a blender (reserve the pot). Add the soaked cashews and 1 1/4 cups water and puree until smooth. Pour the sauce into the reserved pot.
- Return the chicken and any juices from the plate to the pot. Reduce the heat to medium low, cover and simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until the chicken is tender, about 40 minutes.
- Stir in the heavy cream, butter, sugar and remaining 1/2 teaspoon garam masala. Thin the curry with water, if necessary; season with salt. Serve with rice and top with cilantro.
THE BEST BUTTER CHICKEN
Butter chicken originated in a Delhi restaurant when the chef was looking for a way to serve unsold tandoori chicken from the night before. He created a mild tomato curry spiced with cinnamon, cardamom and cloves and finished with butter. It was an instant classic that we love to serve alongside basmati rice and plenty of naan to soak up the fragrant sauce.

Steps:
- For the marinade: Whisk together the yogurt, salt, ginger and garlic in a large bowl until combined. Toss the chicken in the seasoned yogurt marinade until evenly coated. Wrap tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 3 hours and up to 24. (Overnight works best.)
- For the sauce: Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a large Dutch oven or wide heavy pot over medium heat. Toss the fenugreek seeds, bay leaves, cardamom, cinnamon and clove in the butter and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly darker and very fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the onions, season with 1 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden and beginning to caramelize, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the ginger and garlic and cook, stirring, until very fragrant and the ginger starts to turn golden and sticks to the bottom of the pot, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garam masala and chili powder and cook, stirring occasionally, until very fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, breaking them up into pieces with a spoon, and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has reduced by half and the tomatoes are very tender, about 30 minutes. Discard the bay leaves and cinnamon stick (but leave the other whole spices).
- Let the hot sauce cool for about 5 minutes or so, then transfer it to a blender filling no more than halfway. Remove the center cap from the lid and place it on the blender. Cover the lid with a kitchen towel to catch splatters, and pulse until smooth. (If your blender is small, you may need to work in batches.) Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and the cream to the blender and puree until creamy. Pour into a clean pot and bring to a simmer. Season with salt.
- Meanwhile, arrange a rack directly under the broiler and preheat to high. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and set a wire rack inside.
- Arrange the chicken in a single layer on the rack. Broil until the chicken starts to brown in spots, 3 to 6 minutes per side (it will not be cooked through). Remove from the broiler. When cool enough to handle, cut the chicken into 1-inch pieces. Add the chicken to the simmering sauce, cover and cook until the chicken is cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Stir in the cilantro. Serve with rice and naan alongside.
