Orange Beef “Fried Rice” Casserole
Better Butter Chicken
| By : |
Here’s our version of an internet craze: a buttery, tomato-laced, cream-rich sauce enrobing meaty pieces of chicken. Unfortunately, many recipes use cut-up bits of boneless, skinless chicken breast, which become tough shards; or chicken thighs, which leave the sauce greasy. We use bone-in skin-off chicken breasts to give the sauce a more savory, bony flavor, with some collagen melted into it to enrich every bite. To remove the skin from a chicken breast, grab the skin on the narrow, pointy end with a paper towel and pull the skin back and off the meat. Remove any large blobs of fat on the meat. Then cut each breast in half width wise so there’s about the same amount of meat in each portion.

Recipe Notes
Beyond
• You must halve the recipe for a 3-quart cooker.
• For an 8-quart cooker, you must increase all the ingredients by 50 percent.
• The curry’s buttery enough to serve over mashed potatoes.
• Or serve it on top of split-open baked sweet potatoes.
• Or serve it over riced cauliflower. There’s no need to cook the cauliflower. The warm sauce will do the job for you if you serve it immediately and set the bowls aside for a minute or two.
• Garnish servings with minced fresh cilantro and/or chives. And sprinkle unsalted shelled chopped pistachios over them, too.
