Follow step-by-step with voice guidance.
1. Place boneless, skinless chicken thighs into the slow cooker insert.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, minced garlic, grated ginger, garam masala, cumin, turmeric, coriander, and salt.
3. Pour the spiced tomato mixture evenly over the chicken thighs in the crockpot.
4. Cover with lid and cook on low heat for 6 hours (or high heat for 3 hours).
5. Remove chicken thighs, shred or chop into bite-sized pieces, and return to the sauce.
6. Stir heavy cream into the slow cooker until blended smoothly into the tomato sauce.
7. Cover and cook on high for another 15 minutes until heated through.
8. Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro and serve warm with basmati rice or naan.
Use Chicken Thighs: Dark meat stays tender and juicy during slow cooking compared to breasts. Stir Cream at End: Adding heavy cream at the end prevents curdling during long cooking. Adjust Spice Level: Add cayenne pepper if a spicier curry is desired.
Chicken breasts can dry out during long slow cooking; thighs remain much juicier.
