COOKING

1. In a large pan, heat 1 tablespoon of butter and sauté the onions until they have gained a bit of color, for about 15 minutes. Then add the garlic. Stir everything well and sauté for 1-2 minutes.

2. Now add the vegetable broth and deglaze the pan. Let everything simmer for about 5 minutes on medium heat. Now add the heavy cream. Stir everything well. Add the beurre manié, stir well and bring to a boil until the sauce has thickened. Now add salt, pepper, thyme, oregano, and marjoram, stir to combine, let it come to a boil briefly, and set aside.

3. In an ovenproof skillet, heat 1 teaspoon of clarified butter and sear the chicken breasts on both sides. Do not fully cook the meat, as it will finish cooking in the oven and then become really tender.

4. Now spread the entire onion & cream sauce over and between the chicken in the skillet. Smooth out and bake in the oven uncovered for about 30 minutes until done.

5. Remove the skillet from the oven and enjoy the chicken and sour cream caramelized onions with rice, pasta, potatoes, mashed potatoes, or just simply bread.

    ACTIVE: 15 min

    PASSIVE: 15 min

    COOKING

    1. Heat a large frying pan over medium heat and add 1 tbsp clarified butter. Take the chicken pieces out of the fridge and place directly in the hot pan. Fry on both sides until crispy. The chicken should still be on the raw side on the inside at this point, as it will finish cooking in the sauce later and become so tender this way. Remove the chicken from the pan into a bowl and set aside.

    2. Put the pan back on the stove, add 1 tsp of butter and fry the onion pieces over a medium heat until they are transparent and soft.

    3. Now add 100ml chicken broth and deglaze. Simmer over a medium heat until a kind of cream has formed, about 5 minutes.

    4. Now add 1 tbsp butter, 1 tbsp freshly chopped ginger, 1 tbsp garam masala, 1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp turmeric, the chopped chilli pepper and the 4 minced garlic cloves to the pan and fry for 30 seconds. Then add 100g (3.5 oz) tomato paste, mix everything together and fry again for 1-2 minutes. Reduce the temperature to low.

    5. Now add 200ml chicken broth and 400ml coconut milk. Stir everything well and bring the sauce to a boil. Add the chicken and meat juice to the sauce in the pan and simmer until the sauce thickens and the fat from the butter appears dark on the surface in some places. Small lakes of butter will form, so to speak. This will take about 15 minutes.

    6. Stir the butter chicken well and add another tablespoon of butter. Remove the pan from the heat and season to taste with salt, pepper, chopped coriander and lemon juice.

    7. Pour the rice into deep plates or bowls and top with the butter chicken. Serve with a slice of naan bread and fresh coriander.
