Rich and well spiced Slow Cooker Chicken Tikka Masala<\/strong>! Made with bite size pieces of chicken, bright tomato puree, plenty of earthy spices, plus yogurt and cream to highlight. It’s a go-to dinner for busy days!<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Slow<\/p>\n

Yes that’s right a crockpot chicken tikka masala that doesn’t require any browning meat, saut\u00e9ing aromatics, or the extra step of pureeing sauce. Everything is simply added right into a slow cooker<\/a>, tossed together, cooked through, then finished off with a fair amount of cream.<\/p>\n

It is the simplest way to cook this savory Indian-British dish and the final result is a full flavored, perfectly impressive curry style dinner. Who doesn’t love a dinner recipe that takes minimal effort but yields maximum flavor!<\/p>\n

This near effortless dish simmers low and slow allowing all the flavors to meld and soak into the chicken, and its generous allotment of cooking time allows for all those spices to marry together in a overall unified flavor.<\/p>\n

The key to a good slow cooker curry style dish like this is just to use plenty of spices, fresh aromatics (garlic, ginger and onion), and never forget the cream (it compliments the tomato beautifully). Serve it with basmati rice cooked in a rice cooker<\/a> for continued ease, and pair with a side of steamed peas or green beans to include a veggie.<\/p>\n
