Categories     Main Course

Time 5h15m

Number Of Ingredients 16

6 bone-in skin-on chicken thighs (skin removed* (about 2 and 1/2 pounds))
salt and pepper
1 teaspoon oil
2 13.5-oz cans coconut milk ((lite coconut milk is great too))
2 tablespoons dried basil leaves
2 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoon pepper
1 & 1/2 tablespoons yellow curry powder
1/2 teaspoon chili powder (or 3/4 teaspoon )
1 large red onion (chopped)
8 cloves garlic (minced)
2 jalapenos (seeded and finely chopped)
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon water (COLD)
1 teaspoon fresh ginger (grated or minced)
1/3 to 1/2 cup fresh cilantro (chopped)

Steps:

  • Remove the skin from the chicken using your fingers and a serrated knife. Salt and pepper each thigh.
  • Heat a large skillet to medium-high heat. Add 1 teaspoon oil (or you can use nonstick spray).
  • When the oil is hot, add 3 chicken thighs. Don't put them too close together, you want to avoid steaming.
  • Cook for about 2 minutes, until nicely browned on the bottom. Then flip the chicken over to brown the other side for about 1-2 minutes.
  • Remove the chicken to a plate.
  • Repeat searing process with the other 3 chicken thighs. If there is still enough grease in the pan then you don't need to add more oil.
  • Meanwhile, in a crock pot combine coconut milk, basil, 2 teaspoons salt, 3/4 teaspoon pepper, yellow curry, and chili powder (to taste). Stir to combine.
  • Add the chopped red onions, garlic, and jalapenos.
  • Add the browned chicken and stir to combine.
  • Cook on high for 4-5 hours, or on low for 6-8 hours.
  • Remove the chicken from the slow cooker and transfer to a plate or cutting board. Let cool for a couple minutes.
  • Add the ginger to the slow cooker.
  • In a small bowl, combine cornstarch and 1 tablespoon COLD water. Stir until it's not lumpy. Add this to the crock pot and stir.
  • Shred the chicken, removing the bones and any tough bits. It should just be falling apart.
  • Return the meat to the slow cooker and stir. Return the lid and cook for another 10 minutes.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the cilantro.
  • Serve with rice, cauliflower rice, or naan.
