How can you make this coconut curry chicken recipe low-carb?
If you are on a low-carb diet, consider switching out the white rice in this coconut curry chicken recipe with cauliflower rice. Swap the potatoes in the curry with a root vegetable such as rutabaga or turnip, or even use sweet potatoes instead.
What are some variations of this coconut curry chicken recipe?
For a bit of extra flavor, use chicken thighs instead of chicken breasts. You could fry a teaspoon of cumin seeds in a small bit of oil and add those to the potatoes and onions in the slow cooker at the start. Or add a bit of
garam masala for extra spice, or even some pureed chile peppers. Stir in a little lime or lemon juice at the finish to brighten the curry. When serving, add a dollop of yogurt for tang.
Coconut milk is most often used for curries—don't confuse or exchange it with cream of coconut as a variation in this recipe because cream of coconut sometimes contains added sugars.
