This is going to be one of our favorite dinner dishes: Butter Chicken (recipe from Tasty Kitchen). I just made a bit of modification to the recipe to suit our family’s needs. I omitted the cayenne pepper, added a dash of paprika, no cardamom (because I couldn’t find any!), and I used fresh coriander to marinate instead of powder coriander. I also added button mushrooms to the mix and I added turmeric to make the basmati rice yellow.
This was Josh’s portion… and he cleaned his plate! Zoë, too. Chris had a second helping.
I absolutely loved it and I’ll definitely be making this again. I seem to love creamy chicken dishes –see our other favorite chicken dish here. You can tell I tend to try different variations of things that I love. In this case, it seems like I just varied the colors of the chicken, but I swear the creamy basil chicken tastes very different from this butter chicken recipe.
Go on! Try one –or both! –of these recipes. I promise, you will not regret it.
Happy Valentine’s Day!

Thanks for the recipe - I'm always looking for new dinners.
Butter chicken is one of my favorite dishes, I'll give this one and try and let you know what I think. I looks beautiful! When I saw the photo on my blogroll, I was certain you were doing a post on a restaurant! Well done!
That looks and sounds so good I might actually try to make it. My youngest is here with me and just said, yeah make that!
Oh my goodness. Maybe I can make this for supper tonight.
Happy Valentines Day sweet friend!
Mouthwatering!
Looks like something my husband will love. Thanks for sharing!
Looks amazing.
Happy Valentine's Day!
Ooohhhhhh I missed dinner but I am okay with left-overs! :o)
We have an amazing IndoCanadian community close by and the Buter Chicken they make is to die for!
YUM! I'll be making that this week! YUM!!
Looks so yummy! I just finished a big pot of great northern beans. Hope I don't regret it after my husband eats them. LOL
Happy Valentine's Day!

Yum Yum. I too love creamy chicken dishes. And tumeric to rice too.
I'm bookmarking this. Thanks.

I'm sayin'. I saw this on Pioneer Woman and had to try it. Good golly Miss Molly I that I'd died and gone to Heaven.
You have a marvelously blessed week sweetie!
That looks SOOOO good! I'm gonna check out the recipe now! I have a bag full of frozen chicken breasts in the freezer screaming to be prepared some other way other than broiled or grilled!
Thanks for sharing. It looks really delish!
Thanks! I am always looking for yummy, easy recipes, and this one looks like it fits our family's tastebuds. Can't wait to try it!
