Recipe Tips

  • You can add some red chili flakes for a bit of extra spice.
  • Chicken can overcook if left in the slow cooker for too long. This overcooking results in dry chicken that is not very enjoyable. If this happens, try shredding the chicken, so it mixes with the sauce even more.
  • If you need this dish faster, simply turn the slow cooker to the high setting and reduce the cooking time by half.
