Ingredients

1 1/2 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast diced into large cubes 1 tablespoon dijon mustard (my substitution for mustard seed oil) 2 ounces milk 5 ounces natural yogurt 2 tablespoons lemon juice 1 small can of tomato sauce 5 cloves (large size) garlic, finely chopped 1/2 can chopped green chilies 2 tablespoons paprika 2 tablespoons garam masala (I have a recipe to make from scratch)1 teaspoon cumin powder 1/2 teaspoon turmeric

Directions

1. Whisk together all of the ingredients minus chicken in your crockpot.

2. If you want to marinate at this point, place mixture into the fridge to marinate for 24 hours.

3. It may not be safe to leave chicken which has previously been frozen for longer than 24 hours, but fresh chicken should be left to marinate for 48 hours for best results.

4. If you do not wish to leave the chicken to marinate, simply continue to the next step.

5. Turn the crockpot on low until the chicken is cooked throughout (6-8 hours).

6. Most people serve over Basmati rice.

Whole Roasted Tandoori Chicken

I love tandoori chicken, so the last time I had a whole chicken, I decided to just roast the WHOLE thing in a tandoori marinade. Note that the cayennne, hot peppers and black pepper are optional - use one or more as desired.

The recipe here uses a skinless chicken - the fat and calories will be MUCH higher if you leave the skin on.

The foil is essential if you don't want a dried-out chicken - remember that this is skinless chicken!

Each serving here is the traditional quarter chicken (breast and wing, or leg and thigh) - probably enough for 2 individual 3-oz servings, so keep that in mind when you look at the nutrition information. :)

You can use the same marinade and just coat 4 chicken breasts or 4 leg-and-thigh pieces instead, if you prefer a quicker, less messy preparation.

Enjoy!Submitted by: BIGGIRL2082010

Too strong of spice flavors. I may try to make this again with less garam masala and less paprika. - 1/11/18

Not that great for reheating. The sauce turned into a solid. Smells amazing thou. The taste is pretty good but weird. - 1/3/12

I made it using frozen chicken tenders and pre-made garam masala and cooked it on high for 4 hours, and it was still pretty good, I didn't feel it was too spicy. - 5/24/11

I thought this was good. I will tweek the spices a bit, but the slow cooker is very handy. - 9/22/10

It is quite filling, especially for the low calories! - 9/12/10

As another reviewer stated, too spicy, not enough "flavor." It was good, but I probably will not make it again. - 2/7/10

I made this the other day and I used whole bone in chicken legs and thighs. I also marinated the chicken overnight. The chicken fell off the bone and was very good - however, I may play with this and add more spices. I didn't find it "spicy" enough - perhaps some curry and black pepper would help? - 10/8/09

we found this to spicy...not hot but too much spice?? I add way more tomatoes and yogurt to thin it out and dilute the intense spice flavor. - 1/23/09

Great recipe! I made a few mods since I didn't I didn't have time. Made it on the stove, came out great! I substituted cayenne pepper instead of paprika, since I didn't have any paprika. It came out wonderful, and with brown rice, was very very filling. Thanks for sharing! - 1/18/09

I actually made this with almond milk instead of milk and yogurt (I was out!) It turned out great! I can't wait to make it 'right'! - 12/22/08

There was some kind of error with my Garam Masala recipe. I've reposted it & it should be searchable now.
