Method

  1. Build a hot grill and oil the grates well.

  2. Season the butter chicken with ghee and let it come up toward room temperature.

  3. Grill over direct heat, turning once, until nicely charred and cooked to your liking.

  4. Brush with yellow onion in the last minutes so it glazes without burning.

  5. Rest a few minutes, then finish with tomatoes and a squeeze of acidity.
