CRISPY Butter Chicken. Yes, it's AMAZING - in the Air Fryer (or oven)

[@FloLum]

This is one of my kids’ favourite meals! Crispy chicken with a creamy butter sauce. Yum yum! Happy Sunday! 💕

[@anindo73]

If you don't want to use whipping cream you can soak some raw cashews overnight in water, and then blend it - it's a healthier alternative that a lot of people in india use.

[@FloLum]

That’s a great idea! Thanks for the tip!

[@colinroxburgh5049]

Not if your child has a nut allergy.

[@deltas4114]

If non nut use, you can use creamed cannellini beans. You can even spice them up and make an alfredo type sauce.

[@hoosiermaker2358]

@@colinroxburgh5049 cashews are actually a seed,, if that helps.

[@sheilacollins9384]

I don't agree. Cream is healthy (unless you have a problem with dairy)

[@pngo1818]

I loved the simple measurements of each spices, it was easy to remember. I will have to try this one! Also Flo’s mischievous laughs was just so cute😄

[@FloLum]

Ugh! I told Dude to edit that out!

[@lornaw6578]

Thank you Flo (and Dude). This recipe for butter chicken sauce is delicious and so flavorful. I made this recipe the next day I saw the video. My daughter and I love this recipe. She has made this butter chicken sauce several times now but we do add about 2 tbsp finely chopped onion and add about 1-2 tbsp sugar. I really enjoy watching your videos and love the content. Thanks again.

Had cooked this last night and your recipe was absolutely Delicious ... Please post more airfryer and pressure cooker recipe Cheers Ron (Melbourne Australia)

[@karenb3690]

I made this! Excellent! Served with basmati rice and Turkish flat breads.

[@mollysmith6055]

What a beautiful looking dish, Flo. You are a great cook and very smart to make the flavours your family is craving.

[@FloLum]

So kind, Molly! Thank you! 😘

[@snowpony001]

OMG this looks so good. Definitely going to give this a try. What a great variation on Butter Chicken! Thank you so very much. We haven’t been out to eat but once (outdoors) since the pandemic also though we do get takeout some. You Canadians have done such a good job getting the numbers down. Wish Americans were as sensible. Keep safe.

[@FLJAMESFL]

Love that laugh , we so need that now. Love u Flo.

[@tweebie]

I love crispy fried chicken, and I love butter chicken. Definitely adding this to my next week meal plan. Thanks for the great idea, and the video.

[@colinroxburgh5049]

Tip, I keep a jar of 50/50% garlic & ginger crushed in the fridge. Keeps for months and is great for Indian cuisine. Have you tried substituting coco nut milk for cream? I do all the time, much healthier and recommended by Indian chefs.

[@semco72057]

I have not heard of that dish before, but would love to have the recipe and make some myself to see how it taste. Dude seem to love it and the sauce looks great too.

[@bonzo1928]

Hi, a really interesting idea - I have always wondered why they call it butter chicken with no butter in it!! I will give this a go!

[@teacherjenni8874]

I loovee indian food! And i will butter chicken! I m excited to cry this crispy butter chicken! Thank you for sharing this recipe!😄

Hi guys from Australia very good recipe I am of indian origin will try this recipe for my Aussie kids

[@weege001]

i literally just cooked up all my chicken and made chicken salad for the week. will pin this for next week..

[@FloLum]

👍🏼 Hope you’ll enjoy it!

[@Skyfilly]

Thanks Flo and God bless

[@arlenemurphy804]

Have never tried Indian foods, but this looks great. I have one of those Mealty crisp lids for my instant pot. Think the chicken would get crispy enough in that? Cooking only for me so I don’t want to get another appliance. Like you said, there is the oven. lol. Flo, you look great. You are always a joy to watch. What happened to Dudes finger nail....ouch!😮. Sending blessings to you and your family.🙏🙏🙏

[@FloLum]

Thanks, Arlene! It’s a good first dish to try the flavours. I don’t know much about the mealthy lid but maybe. Yeah... he jammed it in a steel door. 😣

[@elyk666]

This looks sooo good. I’ve been wanting to try my own curry but like most I’ve been scared of messing up the spices. I’m going to try subbing whipping cream with coconut cream and chicken broth with veg broth for a yummy vegan version (wish me luck) lol

[@badrillah2704]

Hi Flo, This is my first airfryer purchase. Not sure if i should get airfryer or the oven airfryer. I am concerned about cleaning it. Thank you

[@MsLyonsheart]

I used 2 large tablespoons of yoghurt instead of cream. Was delicious.

[@jimfranklin9770]

I'm glad the new air fryer is working out. That recipe looks great. How is the new kitchenaid doing with toast?

[@FloLum]

So far so good. My son says to me, “How long do I leave it in for? Do I have to watch it so that it doesn’t burn?” I said, “No, it’ll be done when it’s done.” He says, “Wow! That’s amazing!” Obviously, we needed a new one for quite some time. My boy doesn’t know how a normal working toaster works. 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@kerrievans8263]

I substitute coconut milk for the cream because we are lactose sensitive.

[@mariadavis2685]

Can’t wait to try ✌🏻

[@HankTsui]

haha Dude's reading my mind. "speak for yourself" .. I'd eat the whole pot and then some. My issue with whipping cream isn't so much the fat but it's the same issue with tomato paste .. I always end up using some and then try so hard to figure out how to use up the rest. Do you think milk + butter = whipping cream? Indian food still feels super daunting .. not much overlap between Indian spices and Chinese spices. I do notice that garam masala seems to be the foundation for practically all Indian dishes. You guys are awesome! Never stop making videos (and food)! Thanks!

[@priayief]

Love the recipe. And I also dislike the waste of flour when flouring meat of any kind. I use a sheet pan, season the meat, then with the meat in the sheet pan shake flour from a shaker over the meat.

[@eatingadventures9614]

Looks good

[@nicekit]

Hi Flo I always use premix spices.. cuz i do not cook indian food a lot.. so having a lot of cumin, garam masala and etc lying around... will go bad :D i always eat the version where the chicken in the sauce.. will try your version :D

[@lmssu718]

Wah...that's delicious recipe🐤🐥👍🖐..from 🇲🇾

[@TracyKMainwaring]

The difference between Panko and regular breadcrumbs is that it's toasted crumbs. I'd never tried Indian food but butter chicken was one of the first recipes I tried! Found a very authentic recipe (had to make the garam masala even!) written for the IP so it was a great way to try both Indian and the IP! It was delicious! I'm sure yours is too!

[@TracyKMainwaring]

I think people hear "spicey" the think Mexican spicey. Indian is more flavourful, not spicey. There's another word I'm thinking of but someone interrupted me and I forgot LOL Please don't worry about the natural fat in heavy cream. Fat is essential for brain health. It's much more essential for health than rice or naan! Millions of people have returned to good health through low carb, high fat eating. 😀

[@mudiekitty2587]

@@TracyKMainwaring I would add, pastured lard, beef tallow (all farm sourced--non-gmo), organic avocado oil (Chosen Foods- glyphosate free-- tested) and schmaltz. Vegetable oils are highly refined cheap oils and IMHO dangerous to our health. Tons of research and videos on the subject. A great place to start is: The Weston Price Foundation. As far as cream/milk etc. .... non-UHT and farm sourced if possible. UHT destroys all nutrients to make the products shelf stable. Buy local and support our amazing farmers in Canada and US. I will most definitely be testing this recipe. Thank you SO much for your channel. I look forward to all your recipes. Much love! A Canadian living in the United States for over 20 years.

[@mudiekitty2587]

OK....YT just deleted half of my post. Wow....

[@TracyKMainwaring]

@@mudiekitty2587 I've been trying to avoid vegetable/seed oils this year and that means even more cooking for own ingredients before even getting to the real cooking LOL. Frustrating how many people feel canola is healthy. BUT, for 20 years we were brainwashed by the Canadian Heart Association and doctors, clinicians.... pushed low fat, high sugar foods, margarines, chemical concoctions instead of real foods. So glad to finally see the light.

[@FloLum]

@Mudie Kitty... Really?! YT can do that?!

[@wittymum]

Hi Flo, Can you please do videos about the 'airfryer lid' for the instant pot ? How it compares with the airfryer. I'm struggling to justify buying an airfryer especially when I found out there's a 'air fryer lid' for instant pot ! If it's good enough then it's two pots in one ! Thanks.

[@FloLum]

Hi Joanne, sorry... I do not have the lid and am not interested in buying one. But I totally hear you... no space for more stuff!

[@janiswongperez]

I'm surprised you don't use your chopsticks when you're making this! looks yummy! I'll have to try this soon.

[@FloLum]

I have way more control using my fingers. 😉

[@colleenbeamer6403]

A number of years ago, I went out with a group of co-workers. I was basically "following along" 'cause everyone wanted to go for Indian food and I had never had Indian food. Luckily, the place we went to was buffet style so, I could pick and choose whatever I thought I would like. That was the first time I had butter chicken and it was delicious. However, I *really* like your take on the dish, Flo, even though it's not traditional! 😋😋 I guess Dude was so anxious to dig into that butter chicken that he forgot to announce that it was "The Taste"! LOL (Not that we really needed to be told, but he always says, "The Taste" before he digs in!)

[@FloLum]

LOL! Butter chicken is a good intro to Indian flavours. Our kids have been enjoying Indian food since they were little and would just have a large glass of milk with their meal if it was too spicy.

[@scosee2u]

Now you have!

[@JackPaynesFoodPains]

Flo I have one more solution for your oil mister dilemma. I totally for got about this. Go to Walmarts website and type in - Pam spray pump olive oil cooking spray 7 oz-. It comes with olive oil already in it. It has a very nice spray pattern. And the best thing is it is refillable. I have been racking my brain trying to figure out a solution for you. If you get this and it works to your satisfaction please video showing the misto pump going to the trash can lol.

[@agnesukulu8375]

Looks delicious!. Do you have a recipe for the Naan? I will like to try that too. Thanks 🙂

[@FloLum]

Thanks, Agnes! Sorry... this was store bought naan.

[@maxineleroy3176]

I bought the Cuisinart air fryer, etc and was really surprised that you are not to leave it plugged in when not in use! Seems kind of weird, but it isn't a deal breaker??? Any thoughts?

[@FloLum]

I usually unplug my smaller appliances when not in use including my Instant Pots and Philips air fryer. But I don’t unplug the large toaster oven or microwave. I must have read somewhere that they should be unplugged. 🤔 I’m sure there is a good reason. Do you watch “This Is Us”? That might be the reason!

Yes! 😆

[@shirleywong4684]

This may be a dumb question, but why is it called butter chicken when there is no butter in the dish? Just curious!

[@FloLum]

They probably use ghee (clarified butter) in authentic butter chicken and whipping cream is essentially butter in a different form. But really... I have no idea. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@GaryBoyd02]

I buy my tomato paste in a tube so you can use what you want and put it away just like toothpaste.

[@FloLum]

It took me a few years after discovering the tubes in France to finally find them here! I think they are available in the regular supermarkets now but for awhile I only found it at the Italian specialty store.

[@rommelblando4278]

Did i miss the part where butter was used?

[@sheilacollins9384]

This dish looks soooo delicious. I would just modify one thing (from a health perspective). I would replace the generic 'vegetable oil' with much healthier fats, such as butter, coconut, olive or avocado oil. Those "vegetable oils" should really be named "highly processed seed oils". By the time the seeds have been crushed, heated, oxidized, subjected to solvents and deodorants, their oil bears no resemblance to anything found in nature. They are high omega 6 ratio, oxidized industrial products. Studies have shown that they are toxic to human cells, being stored in the mitochondria where they do damage. Interestingly there seems to be a correlation between the advent of, first cottonseed, then soy, corn oils, and heart disease, cancer and macular degeneration, among other serious health problems.
