Hi, @joannaker.banzon07@gmail.com
Butter Chicken (murgh makhana), literally Butter Chicken, is a typical dish of Indian cuisine made from chicken cut into pieces and marinated. This is pan-seared and then cooked in a creamy tomato-based sauce, which can sometimes even contain cashews to provide even more creaminess without the need to add more dairy product.
Authentic Chicken Tikka Masala is usually prepared with chicken marinated in yogurt, skewered and barbecued, specifically in a tandoor, and is also accompanied by a tomato-based curry sauce.
Both dishes are often confused because the sauce has a similar color although the Chicken Tikka Masala is less creamy (it does not contain butter or cashews for example) and has more tomato flavor, and in the case of the Butter Chicken, in this dish the chicken would not be roasted on the barbecue, but it would be enough to sear it in a frying pan.
We hope this information is helpful.
Greetings.
