Creating Quick & Easy Homemade Butter Chicken can be a breeze with these easy steps:

1. Melt Butter: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
2. Sauté Aromatics: Add the chopped onion and sauté until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Then, add minced garlic and ginger, cooking for another 2 minutes until fragrant.
3. Cook Chicken: Add the chicken pieces to the skillet and cook until they are browned, about 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
4. Add Spices: Sprinkle in the garam masala, cumin, chili powder, and salt. Stir to coat chicken thoroughly with the spices and cook for another 2 minutes.
5. Incorporate Tomato Puree: Pour in the tomato puree and stir well. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes.
6. Add Cream: Reduce heat to low and slowly stir in the heavy cream until well combined. Simmer for another 5-10 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is thickened.
7. Garnish and Serve: Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired and serve hot.
