› Recipe & How-to-do: Chicken Butter Masala
Finally the post of my delicious chicken butter masala is here!
A small backstory about my own chicken butter masala recipe. M and I went to an Indian restaurant (M is Indian), and I can’t have such strong food due to me having gallstones. It was pretty spicy, but I could eat it. I was hooked on this dish and couldn’t wait to have it the next time.
At home, I had to do it! I had to master the art of making my own Chicken Butter Masala dish.
I had to think differently, though. My son. With him being selective on food and stuff, I had to adjust the recipe, but oh my god, how good it was! Honestly, better than the restaurants 😅
I added my own ingredients in it for myself but had a separate pot for my son (who doesn’t eat mushrooms and onions).
Pictures above show what I used and so on.
the ginger & garlic paste I used Ingredients
1 Yellow Onion
2-3 pieces of chicken breasts
5 – 10 Mushrooms (depending how much you want)
5DL cooking cream (I prefer the one from Lidl)
1/2 teaspoon Ginger & Garlic paste
Spices
Garam Masala, Haldi (Turmeric), Black Pepper, Fries spicesHow-to step-by-step
1. Start by cutting the onions and mushrooms and adding them to separate bowls.
2. Cut the chicken into pieces and put them in a separate bowl.
3. Add the spices to the chicken and mix around.
4. Fry the onions till they are golden. Use extra butter when frying
5. Add the onions back to the bowl
6. Take the butter the onions were fried in and add it back to the frying pan.
7. Add the mushrooms and fry until golden in color.
8. Add them also back to their bowl
9. Use the butter from the onion and mushroom and fry the chicken.
10. Add more spices to the chicken while frying to have the flavor you wish for. The heat.
After you have fried the chicken, you add the onions into the pan and stir around. Add cooking cream (2.5 dl) and stir around. Here comes the fun part! Add more spices into the pan and stir around. Taste each time you add to find your perfect flavor.
Let it cook for 15 minutes on medium-high and lower the heat to medium-low for another 10 minutes. Add the mushrooms when there are 10 minutes left.Serve with rice & tortilla/naan bread.

› Meal prep tips for successful weight loss
Meal prepping is a game-changer for weight loss because it helps you control portions, avoid unhealthy choices, and save time. Here are some top meal prep tips to set you up for success:
Plan Your Meals Ahead
Decide your meals for the week before shopping.
Include a balance of lean protein, healthy fats, and complex carbs.
Batch Cook Staples
Cook large portions of basics like brown rice, quinoa, grilled chicken, and roasted veggies.
Store in airtight containers for easy mixing and matching.
Use Portion-Controlled Containers
Invest in containers that help you measure servings.
This helps avoid overeating and keeps meals consistent.
Prep Ingredients Separately
Chop veggies, cook grains, and proteins separately.
This gives flexibility to combine different meals throughout the week.
Keep Snacks Ready
Portion out nuts, cut fruit, or veggie sticks for quick, healthy snacks.
Choose Recipes That Reheat Well
Soups, stews, casseroles, and stir-fries are great for make-ahead meals.
Avoid foods that get soggy or lose texture quickly.
Mix It Up
Use different spices and sauces to keep meals interesting.
Variety helps you stick to your plan longer.
8. Label and Date Your Meals
This helps track freshness and avoid food waste.
9. Don’t Forget Breakfast
Prepare overnight oats, smoothie packs, or egg muffins for quick, healthy starts.
10. Be Realistic
Start small—maybe prep for 2-3 days at a time if a whole week feels overwhelming.
