Butter chicken is pieces of tender chicken simmered in a tomato sauce enriched with butter and cream. The sauce is mildly sweet with a slight tang, and the heat is low, which is why this dish is often a good choice for people new to Indian food. The chicken is usually marinated first and then folded into the sauce. In Baku it comes with naan or basmati rice, since you want bread to scoop up the sauce. In a good version the sauce is smooth and not overly oily. A portion usually costs from 14 ₼ to 22 ₼ and is filling for one person.
