Butter chicken may have originated in India, but it’s a dish enjoyed across the globe. Since the recipe was invented in 1947, it’s become a staple. You can find it on the menu at virtually any Indian restaurant. Now, the Sweet Earth Butter Chik’n offers a meat-free version that you can prepare in the comfort of your own home.
It takes less than four minutes to heat this dish in the microwave, making a great option for those days when you need lunch in a hurry. If you have a little more time on your hands, you can also heat this in the oven, but it will be about 40 minutes before the meal is ready to enjoy.
The chik’n isn’t really anything to write home about. It has the rubbery texture you often see in imitation meat products, which means it’s not going convince anyone that it’s the real deal. Thankfully, the chik’n isn’t the star of this dish. No, it’s the incredible buttery tomato sauce that takes center stage.
The sauce is creamy and perfectly seasoned with spices like ginger, turmeric, and cardamom. While this won’t have you gasping for water, it has more heat than you might expect from a microwave dinner. The perfectly-cooked chickpeas and carrots also add a nice bit of crunch to this meal.
The Sweet Earth Butter Chik’n might not satisfy your cravings if you’re in the mood for authentic Indian food. However, this vegan frozen meal is absolutely delicious. It’s flavorful and satisfying, and it even contains an impressive 16 grams of protein. This is a meal we can see ourselves going back to again and again.
