Thanks ganesh and snigdha. Ya Snigdha butter chicken is another of my favorites and so use the left over tandoori for making butter chicken like u do. I make the Tandoori chicken on the gas tandoor and like the slightly smoked taste.

Great Picture. Leftover Tandoori chicken, cut into small pieces and cooked in thick tomato puree makes an awesome butter chicken ;)
