Ah, curry. Just the mere mention of that word is enough to get my olfactory senses tingling with eager anticipation! This spectacular crockpot curry chicken recipe combines Indian spices with coconut flavors to produce a warm and satisfying curry that is sure to fill your belly and heart with untold Eastern pleasures.

A close Maharashtrian friend of mine recently introduced me to a curry chicken dish. In keeping with our crockpot theme, I adjusted it to my Western palate with my own crockpot curry chicken recipe. The addition of coconut milk definitely helps to even out the spicier elements of the recipe!

You’ll notice that I’ve included a little chilli in this dish, and while you can feel free to omit this if you’re not a fan of hot and spicy foods, I think it really serves to get the taste buds standing to attention. This mild spiciness, combined with the sweetness of the tomato and the rich texture of the coconut milk, is nothing short of amazing.
