Slow cooker butter chicken

Not every version of butter chicken uses butter. Coconut milk gives this slow-cooker chicken its creamy richness.

Ingredients

Instructions

1. In medium skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onions to skillet, and cook until softened, about
   3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium, add garlic and ginger, and cook another
   2 minutes. Add garam masala, tomato paste and salt; cook and stir
   2 minutes.
2. Place chicken pieces in a slow cooker, then add tomato paste mixture, lime zest and juice, coconut milk and chicken stock. Stir everything together, cover and cook on low heat setting for 4½ to
   5 hours, until the chicken is cooked through. (You may let it cook up to
   7 hours if necessary, but the chicken may be very soft and shred.) Garnish with cilantro and serve with basmati or jasmine rice, and naan if you have some.
