Heating Instructions

Pan method — keeps the sauce rich and velvety while bringing back the buttery aroma and flavor.

Add a spoon of yogurt or drizzle of cream for extra richness. Finish with a sprinkle of cilantro or garam masala for an authentic touch.

Heat 2½–3½ minutes on medium-high, covered or vented. Stir halfway through to heat evenly. Let rest 1 minute before serving.

Not recommended — air fryer will dry out the sauce.

Preheat to 350°F. Transfer to an oven-safe dish, cover with foil, heat 12–14 minutes until hot throughout.

Heat 1 tsp butter or oil in a pan on medium. Add chicken and rice, sauté 3–4 minutes, stirring gently until hot and creamy.
