SLOW COOKER COCONUT GINGER CHICKEN RECIPE

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together ground pepper, cumin, coriander, turmeric, and salt. Set aside for later use. Using a hand blender or food processor, combine garlic, ginger, and onion. Pulse until a chunky paste is formed. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the coconut oil and butter. Add the garlic paste from above. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, enough time to allow the mixture to golden slightly in color. Sprinkle in the spice mix and stir well so that everything is evenly coated. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes. Allow the garlic and spice mixture to continue cooking on one side of the skillet, leaving the other side for searing the chicken. Once the chicken has slightly browned on all sides, mix with the garlic and spices. Put all the contents of the skillet into the slow cooker. Open the cans of coconut milk and spoon out the thick cream that rests atop the milk and set aside for later use. Add the coconut milk (not the thick cream) into the slow cooker and mix with the chicken. Also, toss in the chopped pepper. Cook on low heat for 4 hours. Once the time is up, add the thick cream from the coconut milk to the dish. Stir in and allow it to cook for another 30 minutes prior to serving.
