Count on your slow cooker to deliver this favorite Indian dish--savory Butter Chicken.
How to Make It
Step 1

Step 2
Combine ginger, garlic, almonds, yogurt, garam masala and salt in a food processor and process until smooth, scraping down sides of bowl with a flexible spatula as necessary. Add tomatoes and pulse once to combine. Pour mixture over chicken. Cover and cook on low until chicken is tender, 4 to 5 hours. Stir in heavy cream, cover and cook until warmed through, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with cilantro just before serving, if desired.

I liked this dish a lot, and so did my husband who is a picky eater. It was very easy to do. I made it just as instructed except I used Greek yogurt instead of regular yogurt. I served it with a steamed brown rice that had some chopped fresh tomatoes and chopped spinach and some garlic in it. I will definitely make this again.

The masala completely overpowers this dish. It's all we could taste!! Without the masala, I think there were some nice flavors hidden underneath. I did not add cilantro. But did add some green pepper and mushroom. It was a bit time consuming also. This may be because I did not have presliced almonds. And because I chopped some fresh tomatoes instead of canned. I think the recipe would be good if the masala were omitted completely or reduced to 1/2 tsp. I may try making it again. But def put in less masala!!! It also didn't seem very buttery.
