4. In a saucepan, melt the remaining butter over medium-high heat. Add the canned tomatoes, heavy cream, salt, cayenne pepper, and garam masala. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the caramelized onions.

6. Bake the chicken in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 12 minutes. Once done, add the chicken to the sauce and simmer for 5 minutes before serving.
7. Serve the butter chicken with the prepared rice.
