    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!

    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.
