Introduction
My husband says this is the best chicken he has ever tasted, homemade or restaurant. For 340 calories, that's not bad! You can easily adjust the spices to make it spicier or sweeter, depending on your tastes. It takes 20 minutes to prep, mostly to chop the onion, and then you just pop it in the crockpot and ignore it til dinnertime!

15 whole cardamom pods
2 tsp curry
2 tsp garam masala
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper

Directions
Taken from http://crockpot365.blogspot.com/2008/12/crockpot-chicken-makhani-indian-butter.html so I could see the nutritional info. Stephanie says:
"Use a 5 quart or larger crockpot. Carefully sew together the cardamom pods using a needle and thread. You can put them in a little cheese cloth bundle, instead, if you have that in the house. Put chicken in crockpot, and add onion, garlic, and all of the dry spices. Plop in the butter and tomato paste. Add lemon juice and coconut milk. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours, or high for 4. The chicken should shred easily with 2 forks when fully cooked.
"Stir in plain yogurt 15 minutes before serving. Discard cardamom pods. Salt to taste, serve with white or brown basmati rice."
