Instructions
- Reserve 1 cup of the yogurt and set aside. Place all remaining ingredients, except for the chicken, into the slow cooker. Stir to combine mixture well.
- Use paper towels to pat-dry all chicken pieces to remove excess moisture. Add chicken to the slow cooker.
- Cook on low 2 1/2 -3 hours. Gently stir in reserved 1 cup of yogurt and cilantro. Serve over cooked basmati rice. Delicious with naan bread as well.
Notes
- The slow-cooker version requires more tomato taste than typical, as the thickness is needed for slow cooking texture.
- For our authentic Chicken Tikka Masala method, see this recipe.
- Slow cooker can be fully assembled the night before. Simply turn on slow cooker a couple hours before dinner for a meal that's ready when the family gets hungry!
