Rasoi Magic + Shan masala Butter Chicken

Butter Chicken is not on my list of favorite dishes. It is too rich , kind of sweet and not spicy for my liking.Dont get me wrong ..I like rich , I like creamy , I like sweet - but not in my non veg preparations . The rest of the family enjoy it .I happened to get a packet of Rasio magic butter paneer masala as a sample to try out from a grocery store.This is not the real butter chicken recipe , I just made it up with what I had on hand.
