This chicken is so tender, it’s like buttah. Okay, it is butter. Well. actually, one of the things that makes this Indian takeout classic special is ghee (aka clarified butter), which has a higher smoke point from cooking out the water, and a nutty flavor from caramelized milk solids. It's great for cooking anything, but it's really the star of the show in this creamy, buttery, tomatoey, tender, yogurt-marinated chicken. Now is a good time to add new Indian spices to your cupboard—like garam masala, an essential blend of warm spices—so you can make it, and other curries, all the time.
