Ingredients

  • 3-4 chicken breasts
  • 4 potatoes cut into chunks
  • 2 cups of chopped carrots
  • 1 small onion chopped
  • 1 box of golden curry sauce mix
  • 4 cups/2 cans chicken broth
  • 2 Tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

Stove Top Directions:

  • Cut raw chicken into chunks, and in a couple of TBS of olive oil cook chicken and onion together.
  • Pull out curry paste and smash or cumble as best as possible.
  • Add the rest of the ingredients in to the pan and let simmer for 30 minutes, stirring often.

Crockpot Directions:

  • In crockpot add all ingredients, except curry paste and chicken broth.
  • (I like to add my raw chicken first)
  • In separate bowl crumble paste and mix with warm chicken broth.
  • Pour into slow-cooker
  • Cook on low for 6-8 hours, stirring occasionally.
  • ½ hour before serving, shred chicken.
  • Serve over rice.

Notes

The instructions are for two different types of cooking methods. You can cook it on the stove top, or you can cook them in a slow-cooker.
**For a creamy curry substitue 1 a can of coconut milk in place of 1 can of chicken broth.*It's not part of a Traditional Japanese Curry, but it makes it deliciously creamy.
PRESSURE COOKER: Follow crock pot instructions, cook on stew/soup setting for 1 hour. Cook rice separately, or empty pot and cook rice in pot after your curry has cooked.
