I tried Tesco Butter Chicken for the first time tonight. It was absolutely delicious. Not just the quality, but the amount of chicken was really good value for money. I stopped buying this product from Sainsbury’s because they changed their range and the amount of chicken, supposedly for2, was insufficient for 1 person! Well done Tesco! I will be buying my ready- meals from you in future!

This is lovely, creamy sauce nice flavour and not too spicy. I don't usually buy ready made meals, but this is certainly worth a try. I will be getting it again. Well done Tesco.

chicken tough but quite a good flavour to the curry sauce. Not very impressed.

Cool spice!

5 stars

The complex delicacy of authentic Indian cuisine ....... but without the usual fieriness. Chunks of tender chicken, in a rich, creamy, delicious sauce!

No complaints here...

I've had this before and really enjoyed it. But this time the rice was 'crunchy' and chalky, and the chicken was tough and chewy. Horrible. Won't be buying again.

Not recommended

I bought this product for the first time lured by the word "butter", the chicken was okay even though the pieces were too big, but the sauce texture was so bad I couldn't eat it anymore, I have mixed the chicken with the rice and after eating a few spoons I couldn't eat it anymore and had to bin it and now I am still hungry and about to go to the grocery store to buy me something else to eat. It felt as if it was sandy and I also have to mention the cardamom pods, unedible and made this even worse. Don't buy it!!!
