- 500 g (1 lbs ) chicken thighs chopped into chunks
- 1 onion diced
- 1 clove garlic crushed
- 2 cm (1 inch) piece ginger grated
- 2 cups 100% tomato passata
- 3/4 cup coconut milk (canned)
- 2 tbs. 100% tomato paste
- 1 tbs paprika
- 1 tsp garam masala
- 1 broccoli cut into florets
- 1⁄2 cauliflower cut into florets
- 3 tbs fresh coriander (cilantro)
- 1 tbs melted coconut oil
- salt and pepper
- Add all the chicken ingredients to the slow cooker and stir super well.
- Turn on to low heat and cook for 8 hours.
- An hour before the slow cooker is finished preheat oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking tray with baking paper.
- Lay the cauliflower and broccoli onto the tray, drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Cook for 30 minutes, turn and cook for another 10 minutes
- Once everything is cooked, serve out bowls of delish tikka chicken, baked veggies and fresh coriander!
- Make sure you cook enough for leftovers! We put left over chicken on top of pizza... and it was one of our best ideas yet.
