Customer Favorite

Butter Chicken, also known as Murgh Makhani, is perhaps the most famous dish to come out of Punjab. At Punjab Food Corner, we prepare this classic using authentic techniques. Our version starts with succulent chicken pieces marinated in yogurt and spices, then cooked for that rich, deep flavour.

The magic happens when the chicken meets our house-made makhani gravy — a luscious blend of tomatoes, butter, cream, and carefully selected spices including fenugreek leaves (kasuri methi) that give it that distinctive, slightly sweet flavour. Paired with steamed basmati rice, the result is a complete meal that's creamy, comforting, and absolutely irresistible.
