Indian Butter Chicken - Our Kind of Wonderful

Indian Butter Chicken

Indian food is something I’ve had to acquire a taste for. It’s something I never grew up having, so it’s been an adjustment, but K loves it, so I keep trying out different recipes, and even trying some for myself here and there. This Indian butter chicken recipe is fast, easy, and delicious! Serve it with some flat bread and it’s perfection!
