Slow Cooker Curry Chicken

Submitted by Matt and Mollee

"I couldn't find a satisfying slow cooker recipe for curry chicken, so I decided to create my own, combining the best parts of several recipes. The ingredients noted as optional can be added if you like an extra kick. I used a 6.5-quart Crock Pot for this meal, but it should fit in a 5-quart just fine."

Unfortunately, this was very bland and so disappointing. Still looking for a great crock pot curry recipe...

i think there are too many different flavors here i used a different recipe for curry chicken last week and it was much simpler yet much tastier DH said it was plain and unfulfilling

This is really really good. I followed the recipe pretty much as shown except I substituted chicken broth in place of the white wine. Served over pasta this was really delicious. Some may find the heat as shown to be a bit much, but I have a pretty high tolerance. Thanks to Matt & Mollee

This was a fantastic recipe. I've added two hand fulls of baby carrots towards the last two hours of cooking and it came out fantastic. It helped cut down the heat of the cayenne and the pepper flakes. I would do this recipe again! Thank you.
