Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 0.5 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1.5 tablespoons curry powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 13.5 ounces full-fat coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

Method
 

  1. Place the chicken, potatoes, carrots, and onion into the crockpot.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, soy sauce, brown sugar, curry powder, salt, pepper, garlic, and ginger.
  3. Pour the spice mixture over the ingredients in the crockpot and stir to coat.
  4. Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours until the chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender.

  6. Cover and cook for an additional 15-20 minutes on high until the sauce has thickened.
  7. Serve warm, optionally over rice or with naan.

Notes

Use full-fat canned coconut milk for the creamiest texture. If you prefer more heat, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes. This dish is excellent for meal prep and stores well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
