– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
– 1 tablespoon garam masala
– 1 teaspoon ground cumin

– Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Creating Easy Butter Chicken Flatbread can be simple if you follow these straightforward steps:

1. Prepare the Chicken: In a medium bowl, season the chicken pieces with salt, pepper, and half of the garam masala. Set aside.
2. Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
3. Sauté Aromatics: In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and ginger, cooking for an additional minute.
4. Add Spices: Stir in the remaining garam masala, cumin, coriander, and turmeric. Cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
5. Add Tomato Puree: Pour in the canned tomato puree, stirring to combine. Cook for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
6. Incorporate Cream: Reduce the heat and slowly stir in the heavy cream. Let the sauce simmer for 5-7 minutes, thickening slightly.
7. Combine Chicken and Sauce: Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, mixing well to coat in the creamy sauce. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
8. Warm the Flatbread: In a separate pan, lightly toast the flatbread or naan until warm and slightly crispy.
9. Assemble: Spoon the butter chicken mixture onto each piece of flatbread, spreading it evenly.
10. Garnish: Top with fresh cilantro and serve with lemon wedges on the side.

These steps will guide you in creating this incredible dish effortlessly, ensuring that each bite is full of flavor and satisfaction.
