Directions
The Better Butter Chicken, A healthier rendition of the popular Indian dish, that doesn’t use gobs of butter and tons of heavy cream. Adapted from Eat, Shrink & Be Merry!, I followed the recipe but blended the onion-garlic-spice-tomato mixture before adding the chicken and cilantro, so the sauce was a smooth butter chicken sauce. It was excellent!, I make this dish from the original recipe which calls for 3/4cup of light sour cream or yogurt not 1/4 as this recipe calls for. A couple of the reviews below have said that there was not enough sauce or the finished dish seemed thick. This would be why. I submitted this revision to the recipe and also added the nutrtional info and a tip from the original recipe.
