Creating Flatbread Butter Chicken is simple when you follow these steps:

1. Cook Chicken: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until browned on all sides. Remove and set aside.
2. Sauté Aromatics: In the same skillet, add the chopped onion, cooking until translucent. Stir in the garlic and ginger, cooking for another minute until fragrant.
3. Add Spices: Sprinkle in the garam masala, cumin, and turmeric. Stir well to combine and let the spices toast for a minute.
4. Incorporate Tomatoes: Add the crushed tomatoes to the skillet, stirring to combine with the spices and aromatics. Cook for about 5-7 minutes to thicken the sauce.
5. Return Chicken: Add the browned chicken back into the skillet. Season with salt and pepper, stirring to coat the chicken in the sauce.
6. Pour Cream: Slowly pour in the heavy cream, stirring until the sauce is rich and creamy. Simmer for another 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
7. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat and garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve hot with flatbread.
