Ginger Paste: 1 tsp
Cornflour/Cornstarch: 1½ tbsp (plus 1 tsp for slurry)
Pepper: 1 tsp (plus ½ tsp for later)
Cooking Oil: Enough for frying + 1½ tbsp
Butter: 1 tbsp
Garlic: 1½ tbsp, chopped
Green Chili: 1, chopped
Bell Pepper: 1, cut into cubes
Soy Sauce: 1½ tsp
Sugar: A pinch

Instructions:
Prepare the Chicken:
In a bowl, combine chicken cubes, ¾ tsp salt, 1 tsp each of garlic paste and ginger paste, 1½ tbsp cornflour, 1 tsp pepper, and 1½ tbsp cooking oil. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly.
Fry the Chicken:
Heat a sufficient amount of oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the chicken pieces and fry for 7-8 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Try not to move the chicken too much to get those nice brown marks.
Transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside.
Cook the Vegetables:
In the same pan, reduce the oil if necessary, and melt 1 tbsp of butter. Add 1½ tbsp chopped garlic, chopped green chili, and the cubed bell pepper. Sprinkle with ¼ tsp of salt.
Sauté until the garlic turns slightly brownish.
Make the Sauce:
Add 1½ tsp of soy sauce to the pan and stir well.
Mix 1 tsp of cornstarch with ¼ cup of water to create a slurry. Pour this into the pan and cook for 30-40 seconds until the sauce thickens slightly.
Combine and Serve:
Add the fried chicken back into the pan. Sprinkle with ½ tsp of pepper, a pinch of sugar, and a squeeze of lime juice.
Mix everything well to ensure the chicken is well coated with the sauce.
Cook for an additional minute to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve this savory Butter Garlic Chicken hot, ideally with a side of steamed rice or noodles for a satisfying meal. Enjoy the burst of flavors in every bite!
