Butter Chicken

Cultural Context

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.
