Curried Chicken Casserole image

Normally I make chicken curry on my stove-top. But this contains all my usual ingredients, goes together quickly, and bakes all by itself. So it can be a time saver. I've never tried this in a crock pot, but it should work well like that, too.

1/4 c finely chopped onion
1/4 c finely chopped celery
1/4 c diced bell pepper (yellow matches the sauce)
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp curry powder

3/4 c chicken broth
2 Tbsp ketchup

1/2 c roughly chopped peanuts
