"I will make this again and again," says reviewer McSnick. "It is key to use chicken breasts with the skin still on. The veggies were to die for! And best yet it is simple to throw together without much of a mess — easy clean up." This one-pan dish is very hands-off, simply crisp the chicken in the pan before adding the vegetables and allow the ingredients to cook in the skillet until the juice runs clear.

"A super simple mild curry for the slow cooker. If you have cashews, they taste great sprinkled on top afterwards," says recipe creator barbara. "Feel free to spice it up to your liking.
