Butter Chicken. Just the name makes you hungry, right? It's that one dish that warms your heart, fills your tummy, and makes you feel like everything is going to be okay. At Sherri’s, we’ve taken this classic comfort food and added our own magic touch.

But what exactly makes Sherri’s Butter Chicken so special? What’s the secret behind the creaminess, the richness, and the unforgettable flavour?

Let’s take you on a little journey — from the first marination to the last bite on your plate.

A Recipe Born from Love and Experience

Sherri’s Butter Chicken isn’t just a recipe. It’s a story. It comes from a place of love — of slow cooking, of home kitchens, and of hours spent testing and tasting. Our founder grew up around flavours, spices, and the aroma of desi dishes cooking in the background. Butter Chicken was always a weekend favourite.

So, when we decided to put it on the Sherri’s menu, we knew it had to be just right. Not too spicy, not too sweet. Just perfect.

The Ingredients Matter — A Lot!

We believe good food starts with good ingredients. That’s why we’re extra picky.

• Fresh chicken only — no frozen shortcuts.
• Thick, full-fat cream to bring that signature richness.
• Real butter not substitutes.
• A mix of hand-crushed spices for that homemade touch.
• Plump, juicy tomatoes — because the base gravy deserves love too.

Each of these ingredients is sourced with care, chosen for their quality, and combined in just the right way to bring out deep, rich flavours.

Marination That Melts in Your Mouth

The journey of our Butter Chicken starts long before the pan heats up. It begins with marination.

We marinate our chicken in a mix of yoghurt, lemon juice, ginger-garlic paste, and our special spice blend. But here’s the twist — our marination is done overnight. That’s right. No rushing here.

The chicken is allowed to soak in all that goodness for hours, so when it hits the grill, it’s tender, juicy, and full of flavour.

When you taste it, you know the difference. The chicken doesn’t just sit in the gravy — it becomes one with it.

The Sherri’s Signature Gravy

Ah, the gravy. The heart of Butter Chicken.

At Sherri’s, we cook our tomato base low and slow. The tomatoes are simmered until they’re soft, the flavours are released, and the texture is just right. Then we blend it to a smooth paste, so there are no lumps — just that buttery, silky mouthfeel.

Cream and butter are added in the right amount. Not too much to make it oily, not too little to make it dry. Just enough to create that balanced, creamy texture you love.

And the spices? Balanced to the dot. A bit of garam masala, a dash of kasuri methi, and a pinch of sweetness to round it off.

Served Fresh, Always

We don’t believe in reheated food. At Sherri’s, every plate of Butter Chicken is prepared fresh. Once you place the order, we get to work. From grilling the marinated chicken to simmering it in the hot gravy — it’s all done fresh and served hot.

The result? That first bite that’s always steaming, always flavourful, and always makes you say, “Mmm.”

Perfectly Paired with Love

Of course, Butter Chicken isn’t complete without something to scoop it up with. At Sherri’s, we serve it with a variety of options:

• Butter Naan – Soft, fluffy, and perfect to soak up that gravy.
• Jeera Rice – For those who like it simple, yet flavourful.
• Lachha Paratha – Crispy edges with a soft inside.

Whatever you choose, it’ll pair beautifully with our Butter Chicken.
