Number Of Ingredients 15

2 lbs boneless skinless chicken
1 large onion
3 garlic cloves
2 tablespoons peanut oil
1 beef double bouillon cubes (Knorr)
3 tablespoons curry powder
1 tablespoon minced ginger
3 tablespoons peanut butter
1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
1/2 glass white wine
1 cup hot water
salt
white pepper
7 ounces coconut milk
cornstarch, and water to thicken (I use 1/4 cup water and 3 tablespoons cornstarch, about)

Steps:

  • Cut chicken into cubes, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Slice onion in julienne, and mash garlic.
  • Heat oil in a small sauteĆ© pan, and brown garlic and onions.

  • Mix hot water with bouillon cube and peanut butter, until both have dissolved/melted.
  • Combine this with the coconut milk, curry, ginger, cilantro and wine.
  • Put chicken in crock pot.
  • Top with onions and garlic, and then with liquid mixture.
  • Cook on low heat for about 6-7 hours, or until cooked through and tender.
  • Add cornstarch slurry to thicken as desired.
  • Serve over steamed rice, with chopped cilantro and peanuts to garnish.
  • I like it a bit spicy, so I also add chopped chilies, or cayenne to the dish.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use coconut milk instead of water.
  • Add diced vegetables such as carrots, potatoes, or bell peppers to the slow cooker along with the chicken.
  • Season the chicken with a blend of spices, such as cumin, coriander, and turmeric, before adding it to the slow cooker.
  • Serve the curry with basmati rice, naan bread, or roti.
  • Top the curry with fresh cilantro or mint for a pop of flavor.

Conclusion:
