Directions
Combine the tomato sauce, coconut milk, chicken broth, curry powder, salt, and cayenne pepper right in your slow cooker. Then add the chicken breasts, chickpeas, potatoes, carrots, and onion, giving everything a good stir so it’s all coated in the sauce. Cover and let it cook until the chicken is tender and cooked through—about 4 hours on High or 8 hours on Low. Once that’s done, stir in the peas and lemon juice, season with a bit more salt and pepper to taste, and let it cook for another 5 minutes. Serve it up on plates and finish with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro for a burst of flavor.
Best Foods To Serve With This
Serve this dish over steamed rice or with warm naan bread to soak up the delicious sauce. A side of sautéed greens or a fresh cucumber salad can add a nice contrast and freshness to the meal.
Keeping It Fresh
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave, adding a splash of water or coconut milk to keep the sauce creamy. This dish also freezes well for up to 2 months.
