Slow-Cooker Malaysian Chicken image

Malaysian food has influences from the Malays, Chinese, Indians, Thai, Portuguese and British. In this dish, Asian ingredients combine for maximum flavor, and the sweet potatoes help to thicken the sauce as the dish slowly cooks. -Suzanne Banfield, Basking Ridge, New Jersey

I'm not a fan of coconut milk, but this dish was still very good. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavorful.

This dish is a bit bland for my taste. I would recommend adding more spices or herbs.

I love this recipe! The chicken is always so juicy and tender, and the sauce is perfect. I usually serve it over rice, but it's also great with noodles.

This recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it's worth the effort. The chicken is fall-off-the-bone tender and the sauce is packed with flavor.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made it with a rotisserie chicken and it turned out great.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I would recommend using less chili peppers if you don't like spicy food.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken turned out dry and tough. The sauce was also bland. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This slow cooker Malaysian chicken was a hit with my family! The chicken was fall-off-the-bone tender and the sauce was flavorful and delicious. I served it over rice and everyone went back for seconds.
