Notes
- Refer to the article above for more tips and tricks.
- The calories shown are based on the recipe serving 6, with 1 serving being 1/6 of the chicken and sauce. Since different brands of ingredients have different nutritional information, the calories shown are just an estimate. **We are not dietitians and recommend you seek a nutritionist for exact nutritional information. **
- For more tomato flavor, use tomato puree or a tablespoon of tomato paste.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Freeze in an airtight freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. Reheat in the microwave or in a saucepan on the stove top.
- The spice levels can be adjusted to your taste. If you prefer a milder dish, reduce the chili powder and garam masala. You can also add a pinch of sugar to balance the heat and spices.
- Make sure the Greek yogurt is at room temperature before adding it to the crockpot to prevent curdling. Stir gently after adding it to keep the texture smooth.
- Serve with basmati rice, naan, or cauliflower rice for a low-carb option. You can also pair it with roasted vegetables or a simple green salad for a complete meal.
- If you don’t have garam masala, you can substitute with a mixture of cumin, coriander, cinnamon, and cardamom, though the flavor won’t be exactly the same.
