Butter Chicken with Dirty Rice

This has got to be my all time favourite fakeaway and I guarantee you’re gonna love it. It’s a lighter take on butter chicken that’s got spiced marinated chicken pieces, a delicious creamy butter sauce served with golden dirty rice. The ingredients list does look intimidating but I promise it’s super easy to make and mostly made up of spices!

Bit more time consuming than other recipes I've done but worth it ,😃 I only had reduced fat creme fraiche in my fridge next time I think I will use the light emlea for a creamer taste

This was delicious - I changed it up a bit and just had normal rice and put the peppers in the curry - I also made the garlic naan from the butter chickpea recipe
