Butter Chicken with Dirty Rice

Name: Butter Chicken with Dirty Rice
Cook time: 45 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 2 servings

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!

Could I make the curry in a slow cooker?

Hi Toni! Absolutely, you can cook the curry sauce and chicken together in a slow cooker. I suggest after sautéing the onions, garlic, and spices, transfer everything including pre-seared chicken to the slow cooker and cook on low for 4–6 hours. You might not even need stock; the slow release of juices should be plenty. Just stir in the cream towards the end to avoid any splitting. Enjoy!
