Butter Chicken (Murgh Makhani)

Butter chicken is one of everyone's favorite Indian dishes - a nice rich flavor, very identifiable as Indian without being too spicy or "exotic." The story is that a British gentleman in the UK ordered some Tandoori chicken at a restaurant, not knowing that it is basically barbecued, not a curry. He sent it back, complaining that it didn't have a sauce or gravy like he expected. The chef simply broke out a can of Campbell's tomato soup, poured it on top, and sent it back. Of course, the customer loved it.

There's lots of different variations on Butter Chicken. Here's a site that explains some of the basic points in what ingredients are staples and a list of their favorite recipes (and videos).

Here's the recipe I followed last night. It's surprisingly simple, but was very good. Of course, I did tweak it a little bit, adding coconut milk, honey, almonds, and V8 juice. Be creative y'all!
