Notes

For a more intense flavor, you can marinate the chicken in the spice mixture for at least an hour before cooking. Ensure your crockpot is large enough to accommodate all the ingredients comfortably to allow for even cooking. If you prefer a thicker curry, you can dissolve a tablespoon of cornstarch in a little water and stir it in during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
