What was on the menu tonight at the Hoffman's? Crockpot Curry Chicken!!! Daniel and I both loved this dish. I threw everything in the crockpot this morning before work and set it on low...the apartment smelled delish when I got home. I love crock pots!!!
I made a couple changes to the recipe. Since it's not peach season and I did not want to use canned peaches, I used dried apricots instead (perfect!). I also did not have a shallot on hand, so I put in a couple tablespoons of dried onion I had. I served this dish over rice, and we also had brussel sprouts and broccolini. A perfect warm, easy, healthy meal after a long day at work! Enjoy :)
