This recipe is made with simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand. Perfect for any occasion, this recipe elevates the humble sandwich to gourmet heights.
Ingredients
For the marinade
button mushrooms, thinly sliced 10
onion, thinly sliced 1/2
 olive oil 1 tbsp
For the Crostini:
chopped fresh (coriander) cilantro 1/4 cup
slices of bread, crusts removed 4
tomato, thinly sliced 1
Step 1: Marinating the Chicken
In a bowl, mix together red chilli powder, ginger-garlic paste, salt, and curd. Add the chicken pieces and coat them evenly with the marinade. Pop it in the refrigerator for at least 7 hours to let those flavours mingle and develop.Â
Step 2: Roasting the Chicken
After marinating, place the chicken in an oven and roast it for about 15 minutes. This will add a lovely depth of flavour to your butter chicken.
Step 3: Creating the Gravy
Heat two generous chunks of Nutralite table spread in a pan. Add the tomato puree and sauté it for 2 to 3 minutes until it releases its beautiful aroma. Now, sprinkle in some cumin seeds, green chillies, and a pinch of salt to enhance the taste.
Step 4: Bringing It All Together
Add the marinated chicken to the pan along with more Nutralite table spread, fresh cream, green chillies (if you like it spicy), and a touch of sugar to balance the flavours according to your preference. Let these ingredients simmer and meld together for 5 to 8 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
Step 5: The Finishing Touch
Just before serving, add a spoonful of Nutralite table spread on top of your butter chicken curry. This will give it that final touch of richness and flavour.

Step 2: Toast Crostini
Cut bread slices into bite-sized pieces and toast them until golden brown, achieving a crispy texture.
Step 3: Assemble Tandoori Mushroom Crostini
Spread the prepared tandoori mushroom mixture on the toasted crostini. Top it off with cherry tomatoes and fresh coriander for a delicious finish. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
