About Butter chicken with tomato sauce
Butter Chicken with Tomato Sauce is a beloved dish from Indian cuisine, known for its rich, creamy texture and vibrant flavor. It features tender chicken pieces simmered in a flavorful sauce made from ripe tomatoes, butter, cream, and aromatic spices like garam masala, turmeric, and cumin. This dish is often enjoyed with naan bread or basmati rice, making it a hearty and satisfying meal. While Butter Chicken is a great source of protein from chicken, it can be calorie-dense due to the use of butter and cream, which contribute to its smooth, indulgent consistency. However, tomatoes in the sauce provide essential vitamins such as vitamin C and antioxidants like lycopene. For a lighter variant, some recipes substitute yogurt or cashew milk in place of cream. This dish strikes a balance between comfort food and classic Indian flavors, making it a favorite for many.
