    I didn’t see an oven temperature, so I set it to 400F and it turned out great! My 1-year-old loved it!

    We are currently making your Butter Chicken Casserole, but the recipe doesn’t state the oven temperature. Trying 350, hope that’s right!

    Hi Julia!

    Thanks for another great recipe. I have four adults to feed so I’ll have to double it.

    One little typo on this recipe…it’s supposed to say garam Masala right? That naughty autocorrect again…it just tried to correct my spelling too😅

    God bless you and your beautiful family
