We all love butter chicken. Its creamy, rich, and flavorful profile makes it a global favourite, but have you ever wondered how it became such a sensation? Let’s take a quick look at the history of this beloved dish and how we bring its authentic taste to you at Indian Curry Corner.
The Birth of Butter Chicken
Butter chicken, or "Murgh Makhani," has its roots in Delhi's bustling kitchens during the 1950s. The culinary team at Moti Mahal, a renowned restaurant, made a delightful discovery: they created a dish using tandoori chicken in a creamy, spiced tomato sauce. The outcome was not just a meal but a masterpiece that became an overnight sensation!
This happy accident was both innovative and delicious, artfully blending grilled chicken with a creaminess that elevated Indian cuisine. In a few years, butter chicken spread like wildfire, inspiring restaurants and home cooks across continents!
Why Butter Chicken Stands Out
Its mild spices and rich, creamy texture make it loved by both Indian food enthusiasts and newcomers alike. The combination of smoky grilled chicken and velvety sauce has made butter chicken a go-to comfort food around the globe.
For instance, a survey showed that over 45% of Americans prefer Indian cuisine for its rich flavours, and butter chicken is at the forefront, thanks to its universal appeal.
