Crock Pot Chicken Madras Recipes

Steps:

• Lightly spray the interior of your crock pot with a light coating of cooking spray for easier clean up later.
• Cover the bottom of pot with the onions, garlic and jalapeños. Top with the chicken breasts. (Please make sure the onions are finely chopped as the desired result is to have them melt into the sauce.).
• Combine the curry powder, chutney, tomato paste and ginger together and pour over the chicken.
• Place the apples on top.
• Cook for 4-5 hours on high until the chicken is cooked and tender but not falling apart. Mix the sauce together so that all elements are blended. If you want a thicker sauce, remove the chicken from the crock pot and stir in a teaspoon or two of cornstarch and cook until the sauce is glossy.

Steps:

• Preheat crock pot to 'high' setting.
• Dice the chicken breasts into medium sized chunks. Put into a bowl with about 60g of the madras curry paste and coat the chunks with the paste. leave to sit while completing the steps below;.
• Chop the Onions and Mushrooms and gently fry for around 5-10 mins in a little Olive oil to soften them up, then add them to the crockpot.
• Add the passata to the crockpot along with the remaining 40g of curry paste and stir to mix.
• Add the spinach (i tend to use frozen chopped leaf spinach so just drop the frozen chunks into the mix and stir them in later) and mix.
• In a dry frying pan over a high heat, seal the chicken breast chunks. For that 'faux' tandoor effect let the paste carbonise on the chunks a bit before decanting into the crock pot.
• Add salt to taste (about 1tsp should be enough).
• Cook on 'high' setting for about 3-4 hours (crockpots vary according to model and manufacturer so use your own judgement on this).
