We are talking about a butter chicken situation here which is rich and creamy and bold and it comes with a little Texas twang because sometimes you want comfort food but with a fun twist like it is wearing boots. I first threw this together after a random craving hit me and I wanted something buttery and something spicy and something that did not come in a takeout box so I gave it a try and let me tell you it was way better than I expected.
