Another Crockpot recipe. It has been awhile, I know. I just have been unmotivated to post recipes lately and I have been unmotivated to cook much. I have been using the "tried and proven" recipes instead of new ones. This past Sunday, I finally decided to try a new crockpot recipe. The added bonus was that it was a curry recipe. My husband LOVES curry but I have never had it too much, so I am always a little nervous to try cooking with it since he has had really REALLY good curry in his past. FINALLY, I got brave and tried it out. Even I admit, it was pretty yummy.
Ingredients:
4 chicken breasts (I used 2)
1 small onion, chopped
2 medium sweet potatoes, cubed
2/3 Cup orange juice
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tsp chicken bouillon granules
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
4 tsp curry powder
2 Tbsp cornstarch
2 Tbsp cold water
rice
Optional Toppings:
sliced green onion
shredded coconut
peanuts
raisins
1) Spray or line slow cooker. Place chicken into slow cooker. Top with onions and sweet potatoes.
2) Combine OJ, garlic, bouillon, salt, pepper, and curry powder. Pour over chicken and vegetables. (After pouring it in, I realized I needed a little more liquid, so I added a little water, too.)
3) Cover and cook on low 5-6 hours. (Either remove chicken or shred it. I tried to remove it before thickening my sauce and the chicken just fell apart. Therefore, I just left in the sauce and shredded it, and then proceeded with step 4)
4) Turn slow cooker to high. Dissolve corn starch in water. Stir into the slow cooker. Cover and cook an additional 15-20 minutes.
5) While sauce finishes, cook rice.
6) Serve chicken and sauce over rice. Top with the desired listed toppings or any other of choice.
Enjoy!
