Curry Chicken

This is a great (and easy) crock pot recipe for curry chicken. It's super easy and really yummy! Great to make if you're going to be gone all day and want dinner ready when you get home!

Ingredients:
1/2 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken breast
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
1 small onion, chopped
2 small (or 1 large) cloves of garlic, crushed or chopped
2 teaspoons curry powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1 2/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon white pepper (black may be substituted)

Instructions:
Chop chicken into large bite-sized chunks. Place olive oil in crock pot. Add the onion, garlic and chicken into your slow cooker Mix the olive oil and spices into a paste. Add it to the slow cooker and stir until it coats most of the chicken. Cut the 2 tablespoons of butter into 2 pats and place it on top of the chicken in the slow cooker. Cook on low for 5-6 hours. Serve with rice or Indian bread such as naan.

Meg,
I tried this with lamb. It was really good but needed more spices. I think the lamb has a stronger taste. We also added some plain yogurt to it, which was really good!!!
