A flavorful and easy-to-make chicken curry prepared in a slow cooker, perfect for a comforting meal.
Heat the butter in a skillet over medium heat.
Using butter adds a rich flavor to the dish.
Brown the chicken breasts on both sides in the skillet.
Ensure the chicken is browned for a better texture and flavor.
Remove the chicken and set aside.
This step prevents overcooking the chicken in the skillet.
In the same skillet, sauté the onions and garlic until fragrant.
Stir constantly to avoid burning the garlic.
Transfer the chicken, onions, and garlic to the slow cooker.
Layer the ingredients evenly for consistent cooking.
Add the tomatoes, cinnamon stick, curry powder, raisins, carrots, and potatoes to the slow cooker.
Mix gently to combine all the flavors.
Cook on low for 6-8 hours or until the chicken and vegetables are tender.
Avoid opening the lid frequently to maintain the cooking temperature.
Serve the curry over steamed rice or with naan bread.
Garnish with fresh cilantro for added freshness.
