I found this slow cooker chicken curry recipe when searching the Olive magazine website for slow cooker recipes...there's quite a few to choose from! There's not much prep to do, there's only one instruction step and you end up with a really delicious curry that is full of flavour, incredibly moreish, with super tender fall apart chicken - yum.
If you're working from home either all the time or some days, like I am, either put it on first thing and it'll be ready by lunchtime and can be reheated for your evening meal. Or, put it on at lunchtime or early afternoon and it'll be ready in time to eat at night.
Tips
- Leftovers can be enjoyed for lunch the next day or freeze them for another day - portion up and place in an airtight container, leave to cool and then pop into the freezer. Defrost overnight and reheat in a pan on the hob.
- This slow cooker chicken curry recipe is easily adapted if you're cooking for less or more people - I think you could easily double or treble the ingredients and still have space for more!
