You will need a crock pot to make chicken curry with rice.

If you are in the market for something new, I really love my Ninja cooker. The nice thing about this is you can brown the meat in the same slow cooker for recipes that call for that.

It is so handy to just have the one pan to clean. It has become of my favorite kitchen appliances.

I also really like this crockpot as well. I use this all the time and it’s great.

My favorite feature is that you can lock the lid down. This is awesome for when you need to take the crockpot somewhere.

I often use the slow cooker to take dishes to potluck events and this feature is amazing! There are several others on sale here.

Another favorite is this programmable crock pot for when I am am not at home all day. I love coming home to a nice meal ready and waiting!

I also like to use crock pot liners to make clean up a breeze. These are worth every penny and save a ton of time.

What is good to serve with chicken curry and rice?

This recipe is delicious served with white rice. You can learn how to freeze rice and you can make this meal even easier.

I love to grab the rice from the freezer in the morning and when we come home it is all ready to reheat and serve. We do this for lots of meals and it helps on busy weeknights.

This meal is also good with asparagus. This oven roasted asparagus is a family favorite and it is very simple and quick to make.

However, this dish has lots of veggies so truly you can just serve it just with rice. We love basmati rice.

This recipe is also really delicious with chicken thighs. You can easily make this meal with chicken breasts or chicken thighs.

Both options are awesome. Just use what you have.

Tip:

This recipe calls for bell peppers. Another time saving tip is to use a small food chopper or food processor to quickly and easily chop the bell peppers.

If you do not have one of these, I highly recommend them. They are such a time saver and you can get the veggies really fine if you have children that are picky.

I usually just chop the entire vegetable and freeze what I don’t need. It’s so nice to be able to just take the diced onion out of the freezer for recipes.

This is how I meal prep. It’s so quick and easy and helps get dinner on the table fast.
