Murgh Makhani is lightly baked chicken in a tomato sauce with lots of spices. In addition to the usual ginger and garlic for chicken, there are cloves, cinnamon, cardamom and fenugreek, as well as the traditional Indian spice set garam masala. The heat of the chili pepper and the spiciness are softened by the cream that is poured into the sauce at the end.
