Crockpot Butter Chicken

This crock pot butter chicken is a rich and flavorful curry with tender chicken cooked in a creamy tomato and butter sauce, infused with aromatic spices, we're going to let the slow cooker do most of the work, and with roughly 15-minute preptime, what's not to love?

I have a tea infuser that I put a star anise and 5-6 cardamom pod into. Put that in the rice when cooking it :)

Hello Nicky I made the "Crockpot Butter Chicken" recipe as your video explains, truly a delight for the palate; The only small problem is the cooking time of this bill. God bless you, friend. From Peru, South America

[@Canalcoholic]

Have been using slow cookers for many years, and even more as empty-nesters, but never seen those 'next gen' variants. Off to check them out.

[@anniessmokingpot]

Looks delcious but I have no slow cooker and if i did i would be worried about the electricity usage. But this is good for the weekend's when there's errands to run or during the week if you're working from home.

[@DaveandGinny972]

That’s somewhat overcooking the chicken breast. Better to use thigh or leg meat. I’d also fry off spices first.

[@KM-pq7jk]

Its bland chicken breast without coriander or cumin. So its chicken cooked in butter, but its not "butter chicken" so proper Indian chefs make this properly, then just transfer a proper recipe to whatever pot you want to cook it in. 👎

[@Tollingduckie]

Please let the spices cook first before adding the rest of the ingredients!! So, so important to let the spices cook to release flavour. Its a basic bloody step to follow when cooking a curry, especially in Indian cuisine.

[@lilycalir6515]

Rude much?! Sheesh. Btw I’m Indian and we don’t fry the spices first so it doesn’t smell up the house

[@Tollingduckie]

@@lilycalir6515 It's not rude. It's a fact in Indian cuisine. The smell is the most important part! It will all be in the taste, but each to their own.
