Ingredients: 1 stick (8 tablespoons) salted butter; 2 pounds chicken boneless, skinless thighs (or breasts), diced into bite-sized chunks; 1 medium yellow onion, diced; 1 tablespoon crushed garlic; 2 tablespoons garam masala powder, divided in half (NOTE: this spice is necessary to achieve that specific Butter Chicken flavor – you can get it at most markets that have a broad spice section, an international aisle or easily online); 2 teaspoons curry powder (you’ll find this in the basic spice section); 1 teaspoon ground cumin; 1 teaspoon ground ginger; 2 cups chicken or garlic broth (I used 2 tsp Chicken Better Than Bouillon + 2 cups of water); 13-14 ounce can unsweetened coconut milk (shake the can to make sure it sounds liquidy instead of thick); 1 lb (box) Farfalle (Bowtie) pasta; 6 ounce can tomato paste; 1/4 cup heavy cream or half & half; 1 teaspoon seasoned salt

Butter Chicken is an Indian staple and I thought it'd be creatively delish to dress it up for a bow-tie affair. I'm talking transforming butter chicken into a pasta dish that really showcases them in a new light on the dance floor.
