Butter chicken, or Murgh Makhani, originated in Delhi, India, in the 1950s. It was created by the chefs at the Moti Mahal restaurant, who used leftover chicken in a rich, buttery tomato sauce. This dish has since become a staple in Indian cuisine, celebrated for its creamy texture and aromatic spices. It's often served with naan or rice and is popular in Indian restaurants worldwide.

Equipment

Pressure cookerRice cooker or potCutting boardKnife

Ingredients

  • 4 chicken thighs, bone-in and skin-on
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 2 tbsp jerk seasoning
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • 1 ripe mango, peeled and diced
  • 1/4 cup hot sauce
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 tbsp honey

Instructions

  1. 1In a large bowl, combine the buttermilk and jerk seasoning. Add the chicken thighs, ensuring they are fully submerged. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
  2. 2In a separate bowl, mix the flour, salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  3. 3Remove the chicken from the buttermilk mixture, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge each piece in the seasoned flour, pressing lightly to adhere.
  4. 4In a large skillet, heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot (about 350°F or 175°C).
  5. 5Carefully add the chicken thighs to the hot oil, skin side down. Fry for about 7-8 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 75°C).
  6. 6Remove the chicken from the skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  7. 7In a small saucepan, combine the diced mango, hot sauce, lime juice, and honey. Cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mango is soft and the sauce is heated through.
  8. 8Blend the mango mixture until smooth, then return to the saucepan to keep warm.
  9. 9Serve the fried chicken hot, drizzled with the mango hot sauce.
