As a chef, I can say they are not the same. Butter chicken is cooked with marinated chicken in a creamy sauce, while tikka masala uses grilled chicken chunks in a spicier sauce.

Butter chicken (Murgh Makhani) is typically sweeter and creamier, whereas chicken tikka masala has a spicier, tangier profile.

Straight up, butter chicken and tikka masala are like different episodes of the same spicy show!

Nah, they are cousins, but not twins. Butter chicken is creamier and richer, while tikka masala has a tangy tomato base.
