8 Delicious Ways to Use Butter Masala From Lex's Pantry
Cooking Butter Chicken
This blend does require some additional ingredients over and above the chicken, but we do our best to make it as easy as possible. And that's pretty easy!
And don't worry, we will send you the ingredient list required and include instructions for both traditional and Instant Pot options. The Instant Pot version will be a little wetter but don't worry, you'll fix that at the end by adding more butter and cream!
Try Something New
Have you ever tried a butter chicken burrito? Or butter chicken poutine? Or even butter chicken over pasta? Or the wildly quick and tasty butter chicken mac & cheese? Well, now it will be crazy easy for you to try these at home!

VERY flavourful and the recipe Lex provides with the spice mix is beyond easy with everyday ingredients. We loved it! Enjoyed it even more as leftovers...the flavours just continue to intensify and SATISFY:) Already ordered more!
The recipe was super easy to follow. The spices were excellent!
I used Naan minis to soak up all the goodness.
Would recommend.

This spice blend is amazing! We used Lex’s butter chicken recipe and it was honestly so tasty. Went back to the market this weekend to buy more!!
Love that so much, Amber! We try and keep it fresh and ready for you at all the markets.
We got the tip for trying this with the PC brand White Cheddar Mac & Cheese, and it's become a weekly cheat meal for us. We keep meaning to make a butter chicken style rice dish with it, but we keep going back to the Mac & Cheese! It's incredible!!!
I'm so glad you tried it and liked it, Dave! It's a fun quick way to get a great flavour hit. And perfect to maximize the value of your cheat meal!
I tried this Butter Masala blend in a white cheddar Mac n Cheese on Lex's suggestion and it was incredibly tasty and flavourful! I would definitely recommend that you try this for yourself!
Fantastic! I'm so glad you tried this trick.

Spice Storage
Spices, rubs and spice blends, should be stored in a dry, cool, dark place and used quickly to get the most flavour from them.
Ground spices typically lose their freshness and are often past their peak in 6 months.
