YUM! I thought this was a curry type chicken at first. It also looks like this dish that Scott and I have had a an Indian restaurant here in ABQ. It's my favorite dish there...I can't remember what it's called though. I should know since it's my favorite but it's all stuff I can't pronounce or I think I'm saying it wrong. I can remember "orange colored sauce chicken." Maybe that's what's it called....or at least it should be...because really, I shouldn't be forced to try and say hard stuff from different foreign freakish countries, should I?!...looks great, Emily.
It probably is the orange colored sauce chicken you get at the indian restaurant- when we first went to an indian restaurant I asked the guy what I should order and he said "butter chicken- that is what everyone usually gets"
this looks delicious! it sounds indian, and i'm sure you could add a little curry for variety. i'm trying it this week!
i am so sick of all my usuals--i need something new like this!
Yum! I think I am too hungry looking at this blog because I want it all right now.
anyway... how cant you go wrong with all the yummy butter?
Wait a minute! Is it one ounce butter or ten ounces of butter? And if it is only one oz then why is it called Butter Chicken?
1 oz! I don't know why it is called butter chicken- probably because it is easy to pronounce?
;0) When I've gotten it in restaurants the chicken is so tender and soft (like butta!- have to say it in a coffee talk accent) but who the heck knows? not me!
Yes, try it today!
