Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

3 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, pounded to an even thickness (4 average-sized breasts)
1 to 2 teaspoons 21 Salute Seasoning or poultry seasoning
1 teaspoon kosher salt, or to taste
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or to taste
1/2 cup white wine* or chicken broth, or as necessary
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, or more if you want extra sauce
1 tablespoon garlic, finely minced; or to taste
2 teaspoons fresh parsley, optional for garnishing

Steps:

To a large skillet, add the olive oil, pounded chicken, evenly season with 21 Salute, salt, pepper, and cook over medium-high heat for 5 minutes. Do not touch, move, or disturb the chicken while it is searing. After 5 minutes, flip chicken over. It should have a medium golden color. For thicker/bigger chicken breasts, sear for 6-7 minutes.
Allow chicken to cook on the second side for about 5 minutes, or until done and cooked through. Again, do not disturb the chicken while it's searing.
Remove chicken with a slotted spatula and place it on a plate to rest.
Using caution, deglaze your skillet by adding wine (or broth) and allow the liquid to bubble up and steam violently for a few seconds.
Add the butter and allow it to melt, about 1 minute; stir continuously until melted.
Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minutes; stir continuously.
Turn the heat off, add the chicken back into the skillet, flip it around in the garlic butter sauce, and spoon the sauce over the chicken.
Optionally garnish with parsley and serve immediately.

Tips:

Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish. Use fresh ginger, garlic, and tomatoes, and choose a good quality garam masala.
Don't be afraid to adjust the spices to your liking. If you like your food spicy, add more chili powder or cayenne pepper. If you prefer a milder dish, reduce the amount of spices.
Be patient when simmering the sauce. This will allow the flavors to develop and deepen. Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes, or longer if you have time.
Serve with your favorite sides. Butter chicken is traditionally served with rice, but it can also be served with naan, roti, or paratha.

Conclusion:

Butter chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a restaurant-quality meal at home. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner that is sure to please everyone at the table, give butter chicken a try.
