cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

Saute 1/2 onion in 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat for a few minutes.

Season 3 chicken breasts overnight with 1 clove of garlic, salt, paprika, and black pepper.

Add olive oil to the pan with the onions and sear the chicken until browned, but not cooked through.

Transfer the partially cooked chicken and onions to a slow cooker.

Add a jar of butter masala sauce to the slow cooker.

Cover and cook on low for about 3 hours or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.

During the last 45 minutes, prepare turmeric rice by cooking white rice with salt, turmeric, and butter.

Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the slow cooker and dice or shred it on a cutting board.

Return the diced chicken to the slow cooker and stir to combine with the sauce.

Warm butter flour tortillas and fill them with a layer of turmeric rice, followed by the butter chicken and sauce, and top with freshly shredded carrots and cilantro.
