Instructions
Now that you have everything you need, let’s break down the preparation of Texas Roadhouse Butter Chicken with these simple steps:
1. Prepare Chicken: Start by ensuring your chicken breasts are completely thawed. Pat them dry and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
2. Melt Butter: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt half of the butter.
3. Sauté Aromatics: Add the minced garlic and ginger to the skillet. Sauté for about a minute, until fragrant but not browned.
4. Cook Chicken: Place the seasoned chicken breasts into the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C).
5. Add Spices: Once the chicken is cooked, sprinkle the paprika, cayenne pepper, and oregano over the chicken. Stir well to coat the chicken in the spices.
6. Incorporate Remaining Butter: Add the remaining butter to the skillet. Let it melt and combine with the chicken and spices for a few moments.
7. Pour Cream: Slowly pour in the heavy cream, stirring continuously to create a smooth sauce. Allow it to simmer for about 3 minutes until slightly thickened.
8. Garnish: Remove from heat and sprinkle fresh parsley over the top for color and freshness.
9. Serve Immediately: Transfer the chicken to a serving platter, letting the sauce drape over the breasts beautifully.
