Instructions
If your slow cooker is stovetop safe: heat some olive oil in the bow lover the low heat. Season chicken pieces with salt and black pepper and quickly fry the chicken thighs until they are seared and golden.
If you can't use the slow cooker bowl on the stove, simply use a frying pan to sear the chicken.
Once chicken is seared, add green curry paste and using a wooden or silicon spoon mix the paste for a couple of minutes, until aromatic.
Add coconut milk and transfer the bowl to the slow cooker.
Cook on low for 4 hours.
Notes
The cooking time varies from slow cooker to slow cooker and also depends on the size of your chicken pieces. My chicken thighs were small and were cooked for 2 hours on low. Please check the cooking times for your slow cooker.
I only used one serving of green curry paste, which would serve two people. That ensures that the curry is less spicy and my kids can enjoy it too.
