Easy Crockpot Chicken Curry
Oh Yummy. I love curry. This is such an easy recipe for a Crockpot Chicken Curry. Adam and I love Indian food. We have a few Indian restaurants around here, but I love being able to have a good curry at home.
Adam bought me a great Indian Cookbook a few years ago that really focused on the main spices in Indian dishes. There are no crockpot recipes in that cookbook, haha. I did learn a lot of the flavors though.
You could additionally top this Easy Crockpot Chicken Curry with some Greek yogurt.
We served it with riced cauliflower because we are trying to eat lower carb meals. You can serve with brown rice if you like.
Adam says it is a good balanced curry because it isn’t too hot, yet has a lot of good flavor. He also enjoyed the riced cauliflower with it. Aidalyn just ate the chick peas plain, haha. My little picky eater.
For Trim Healthy Mama’s This Easy Curry would be an Energizing meal because of the carbs in the chick peas. Using Lite coconut milk allows us to keep the fat low enough to be considered an energizing meal. Check your lite coconut milk grams of fat. Mine had 4.5 grams in 1/3 cup of coconut milk. This easy crockpot chicken curry serves about 6.
I hope you enjoy my Easy Crockpot Chicken Curry!

I am going to try this next week! It looks divine and so healthy. I found you through calm.healthy.sexy’s “Let’s Get Real” link-up party! Is garam marsala easily found? Do you know of a substitute for it, if I can’t find it?
http://allrecipes.com/recipe/easy-garam-masala/ Here is a recipe to make it yourself. I actually bought mine at Target. I’m thinking I my try to make a mix up next time though and just label it. So glad you found me!
You can also find Garam Masala at the regular stores—McCormick’s makes a nice one. And I would never use something else in place of Garam Masala as it is offers such a unique flavor!
I ended up following the allrecipe’s list for garam marsala. I made this recipe tonight. It’s now officially a Recipe Rave! My family l.o.v.e.d. it!!! I will be sharing this on fb and twitter. THANKS!
You made my night! I’m so so so happy you loved it as much as we do. : )
Hi Angela! I’m stopping in from Let’s Get Real today. I have never eaten or tried to make Indian food, but I’ve been seeing it all over the place lately. I really need to try it. Your crock pot recipe sounds nice and easy. I’m with Bonny…..I’ve never seen garam marsala. Can I find that at the grocery store or is it a specialty spice?
I actually bought mine at Target. I know you can make it yourself too… but I would have to do a google search to find a recipe since I just buy it myself. http://allrecipes.com/recipe/easy-garam-masala/ Here is one from Allrecipes
Crock pot meals and Indian food are music to my ears. I really enjoy Indian food but don’t make it very often. Your version is great. I’ve pinned it for later. Thanks for linking up and sharing this at the Let’s Get Real Friday Link Party. I hope you’ll join us this Friday.
Thanks for hosting the link party! Yes, I love Indian food. I really need to try to make a Gluten Free Naan bread to go with it… then it would be perfect : )

Hi Angela ~ Just curious to know what glucomannan is? Thanks.
It is made from the root of the Konjac plant. Have you seen the miracle noodles? It is a gluten free thickener (also low carb too) You can read more here: https://www.grassfedmama.com/2014/01/23/glucomannan-new-weight-loss-secret/
Thanks for linking this up with Let’s Get Real. Hope you’ll come back again and link up tonight or tomorrow.
Thanks!
I just started using it a few months ago and I really love cooking with it. There was a learning curve at first… I love that is is carb (net carb) and gluten free.
If you don’t mind carbs, you can always eat it over rice (basmati rice would be traditional).
And thanks for the shopping tip!

Made this and loved it. I used a couple curry bullion cubes instead of salt. I also used closer to 2 pounds of chicken. Excellent flavor!
Oh yay!! Curry Bullion cubes sound amazing! I just tried some bullion from Wild Tree for the last time I made soup and it was really really good.
