EASY SLOW COOKER CHICKEN CURRY WITH POTATOES AND COCONUT MILK



Easy Slow Cooker Chicken Curry with Potatoes and Coconut Milk image

A super simple mild curry for the slow cooker. If you have cashews, they taste great sprinkled on top afterwards. Feel free to spice it up to your liking. I keep it mild so my kids will eat it, too. You don't need to saute anything in advance, everything just goes in the slow cooker as is. I serve it over rice.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken     Chicken Thighs

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/4 teaspoons ground cumin
1 1/4 teaspoons ground coriander
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
1 1/2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into 3/4-inch pieces
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 bag (10 ounces) frozen peas
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 boneless, skin-on chicken thighs (about 1 pound total)
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro leaves, plus whole leaves for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a small bowl, stir together cumin, coriander, and cayenne, if using. In a medium pot, bring potatoes to a boil in salted water over high and cook until tender when pierced with a knife, 10 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer potatoes to a paper-towel-lined plate and set aside. Return water to a boil, then add peas and cook just until tender, 3 minutes. Drain peas and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, in a large ovenproof skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Season chicken with salt and cook, skin side down, until golden-brown and crisp, about 5 minutes. Flip and transfer skillet to oven; roast until chicken is cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Remove chicken from skillet and pour off all but 1 tablespoon fat. Add potatoes and 1 1/2 teaspoons spice mix, reserving remaining for Moroccan Meatballs with Couscous and Roasted Carrots, and cook over medium-high, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are golden in spots, 7 minutes. Stir in peas, lemon juice, and chopped cilantro; season to taste with salt and pepper. To serve, place chicken on top of peas and potatoes and sprinkle with cilantro leaves.
