My go to buttered chicken recipe. Still tastes creamy without the dairy, and packed full of flavour. Family favourite.

Making this butter chicken for the second time. Both times I took the advice of others here and doubled all of the seasonings. I also add more coconut milk, about half a can more, and two sticks of butter. It turns out great! Will keep making this dish.

Made according to the recipe, but should have read the comments ahead of time. Very bland, but the flavors have the potential to be delicious if spices were at least doubled.

Amazing taste!! Finally an easy Indian dish recipe. I already made it twice and the whole family loves it. I served it on top of Basmati rice but cauliflower rice could do it too.

Great flavor. I took the advice from the comments and was heavy on the spices. It turned out great.

It’s great! Only gave 4 stars because I think I’ll add more garlic next time but overall it’s a great base recipe. I served it over quinoa. I added turmeric powder as well.

I made a huge batch of this for a pot luck at work. About 25 servings. And then even with that many servings, I tripled the amount of spices added to give it extra flavor. I also added an extra 8oz of tomato paste than necessary. I’d definitely recommend anyone making this recipe just go super heavy handed on the spices. It turned out great and got rave reviews, everyone saying they loved it. It was also nice that it was dairy free for my lactose intolerant coworkers.

Made this recipe and wasn’t very impressed. It was extremely bland and didn’t taste like butter chicken at all. Would not recommend and would not make this recipe again.

It turned out ok. It’s definitely missing flavors. Think next time I’m going to do it my way and use butter and marinade chicken overnight in Greek plain yogurt

Good we’ve had it many times new favorite we’ve done both slow cooker and in a covered casserole.

This was very, very good. My husband who is typically lukewarm on Indian and Chinese food really loved this. And it was so easy! I made a purée of roasted red onion, butternut squash and cauliflower seasoned with garam masala to bed the chicken on...Paleo and delish!

I have made this several times and love it. It's super easy and tasty. I usually substitute the arrowroot flour with a different flour like coconut or almond since I don't use arrowroot flour on the regular.

My family loved this recipe, so much so that there wasn't any left overs! I didn't end up adding any flour or other kind of thickener because I felt that the coconut milk fat was more than enough to thinking the sauce. It ended up working out pretty well. I did also add a little more curry powder as well because I found after 4 hours of cooking it didn't have enough flavor.
