About Chicken butter masala

Chicken Butter Masala is a rich and flavorful dish rooted in Indian cuisine, known for its creamy, spiced tomato-based sauce and tender pieces of chicken. Its ingredients typically include boneless chicken, tomatoes, butter, cream, and a blend of aromatic spices like garam masala, turmeric, cumin, and coriander. While the dish is a source of protein thanks to the chicken, it is also calorie-dense due to the generous use of butter and cream, making moderation key for a balanced diet. The spices provide health benefits such as anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, while the tomatoes contribute vitamins A and C. Though indulgent, pairing the dish with whole-grain sides like brown rice or whole-wheat naan can improve its nutritional profile. Chicken Butter Masala is beloved for its savory taste and luxurious texture, representing a hallmark of Indian culinary tradition.
