SLOW COOKER THAI CHICKEN CURRY
Bell peppers add a touch of sweetness to this spicy Thai dish. This is my mom's recipe, to which I've added a touch of flair! Use more coconut milk if you like it saucy--I prefer it thick and chunky. Coconut and raisins as garnish bring the heat of the curry down a notch.

- In a 4x6 quart slow cooker, whisk together coconut milk, 4 teaspoons curry paste and salt until blended. Add cauliflower, potatoes, pepper and carrots; toss to mix and coat. Rub 2 teaspoons curry paste all over chicken; place chicken on top of vegetable mixture. Cover slow cooker and cook on LOW setting until chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender, about 5 to 6 hours. Remove chicken to a cutting board and cut into bite-size pieces (or shred using two forks); set aside. Stir peanut butter and remaining 1 teaspoon curry paste into slow cooker until blended. Add chicken back to slow cooker with cilantro and scallions; gently stir to coat. Spoon onto plates or into bowls and serve with lime wedges; sprinkle each serving with 1 teaspoon peanuts. Yields about 1 1/2 cups per serving. Notes: Make sure to cut the cauliflower, carrots and potatoes into similar-size small pieces so they cook through in a similar amount of time. Season to taste with salt and fresh lime juice before serving, if desired. For a spicier kick, serve with sriracha sauce on the side.
EASY SLOW COOKER THAI CHICKEN WITH BASIL
The secret ingredient for this recipe is Thai basil which has a unique taste. Most Asian markets have it and well stocked supermarkets as well. You can substitute with regular basil, but it won't have the typical Thai flavor.

THAI CHICKEN MEATBALL CURRY (SLOW COOKER)
From "150 Best Indian, Thai, Vietnamese and More Slow Cooker Recipes" by Sunil Vijayakar. I actually had ground turkey and that worked beautifully in this recipe. I also modified the recipe to eliminate the frying, which also worked out really well, and am posting both versions. This is rather spicy, so if you are uncertain reduce the number of chile peppers or amount of curry paste.

Steps:
- Mix chicken or turkey, breadcrumbs, half of the cilantro, lemongrass and chile peppers in a large bowl, combining thoroughly.
- If not frying, drop walnut-sized meatballs into a 4 qt slow cooker (I coat with a little oil to make cleanup easier). Cover and cook on High for about 1 hour to set the meatballs. (For all I know you don't need to do this - it might work just as well with the sauce added immediately - but this is how I did it).
- Combine the remaining ingredients except the cilantro in a small bowl; pour over the meatballs, reduce to Low and cook for 4 hours, or cook on High for 2 hours.
- If frying, form the meat into walnut-sized meatballs. Heat oil in a large skillet and quickly fry the meatballs until browned. Transfer to slow cooker.
- Make the sauce as in Step 3 and pour into the frying pan, stirring to scrape up the fond; pour over the meatballs and cook on Low for 6 hours or on High for 3 hours.
- Serve immediately with steamed rice, garnished with the remaining cilantro.
THAI GREEN CHICKEN CURRY IN A SLOW COOKER
Steps:
- Tip the chicken chunks into the slow cooker along with the potatoes, carrot, capsicum, zucchini, mushrooms and chilli. Mix the curry paste with the coconut milk and pour this into the pot. Stir all the ingredients together mixing together well. Put the slow cooker on for 4 hours and 10 minutes. Our slow cooker only has one setting while some others can be set to low, medium and high. I would imagine that you would want to set your cooker to medium. Forty-five minutes before the end of cooking time, add the snow peas, baby peas and cashews. Serve with rice and topped with some sprigs of coriander if you like.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use a good-quality coconut milk. I recommend using a brand that is thick and creamy, such as Thai Kitchen or Chaokoh.
- If you don't have a slow cooker, you can make this recipe in a Dutch oven over medium-low heat. Just be sure to stir the chicken and vegetables occasionally so that they don't stick to the bottom of the pot.
- This recipe is also great for meal prep. Simply cook the chicken and vegetables in the slow cooker on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours. Then, let the chicken cool and shred it. Store the chicken and vegetables in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to eat, simply reheat the chicken and vegetables in a skillet or microwave.
- Serve this dish with rice, noodles, or your favorite vegetables. You can also add a dollop of sour cream or yogurt, or a sprinkle of chopped peanuts or cilantro.
Conclusion:
This Slow Cooker Thai Chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a busy weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and flavorful, and the vegetables are cooked to perfection. The coconut milk and curry paste give the dish a rich and creamy flavor that is sure to please everyone at the table. This recipe is also very versatile.
