Creating this incredible butter chicken is easy when you follow these steps:

1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, combine the chicken pieces with yogurt, lemon juice, garam masala, cumin, paprika, turmeric, and salt. Ensure the chicken is well coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

2. Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the marinated chicken and sear for about 5-6 minutes, until browned. Cook through, then remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

3. Sauté the Aromatics: In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the chopped onion, garlic, and ginger. Sauté until the onions are translucent and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.

4. Add Tomatoes: Stir in the crushed tomatoes and let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes. This will enhance the flavors.

5. Incorporate Cream: Gradually add the heavy cream, and mix well. Adjust the heat to low, allowing the sauce to thicken while simmering for another 5 minutes.

6. Combine Chicken and Sauce: Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, ensuring it is well coated with the sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through.

7. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat and finish with fresh cilantro. Your Quick & Easy Homemade Butter Chicken is now ready to be enjoyed!
