Slow Cooked Chicken Curry

Recipe #294451 | 4½ hours | 25 min prep | SERVES 6 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: justcallmetoni

Ran out of curry powder recently and replaced it not once but twice. My surplus of this spice blend sent me in a hunt for ways to enjoy my bounty. This is a reduced fat adaptation of a recipe from BHG. I just love slow cooker recipes for the ease of dump and run cooking. This one is a bit more involved since you need to prepare the lighter substitute for coconut milk. If you are not concerned about fat or calories, feel free to use regular or light coconut milk instead. A wonderful, rich flavored curry for just 5 WW points that is even better the next day.

  • cups small red potato, scrubbed (halved or quartered)
  • 1 1/2 cups carrot, cut 1/4 inch thick on the bias
  • cup coarsely chopped cooking apple (make big chunks so they do not dissolve)

  • 1/2-1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped (amount is to taste)

    Great curry! And so easy to prepare. The house was filled with a wonderful aroma all day while it was cooking - couldn't wait to get it on the table. I used chicken breasts, baby carrots and 1/2 of a huge jalapeno. The faux coconut milk was terrific. And you're right - it's even better the next day. Thanks Toni for a real winner here.
