Delicious Indian curry with rice and side dishes, garnished with herbs, perfect for a flavorful dinner.

Method

  1. Start by prepping your yellow onion, garlic, fresh ginger so the cooking goes quickly.
  2. Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the shallots in a little butter until translucent.
  3. Turn the heat up, add the butter chicken, and cook until deeply browned and aromatic.
  4. Stir in the yellow onion along with a good pinch of salt, scraping up anything stuck to the bottom of the pan.
  5. Pour in the chicken stock, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook until thickened and glossy.
  6. Off the heat, brighten it up with toasted nuts and a final crack of pepper.
  7. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
