Tastefully Simple Tonight -Tikka Chicken

Well folks do I have a meal for you!  Tonight's dinner has a Thai flare with a touch of heat!  Here is a preview of my plate.  You will see Nick's plate at the bottom.  Please do not mistake the portions as a reflection on taste, but rather taste buds... Thai food is not a favorite of mine.... Nick on the other hand is a HUGE fan! Please note I seasoned the broccoli with a little butter and some Seasoned Salt.

Now on to my disclaimer for this meal... the majority of the work is in the waiting.  I forgot to read the recipe when planning my meals and failed to notice that this meal needed to cook on low in the crock-pot for 3-4 hours before serving.  Needless to say dinner was served well past a child's bed time tonight.  Here is a picture of the ingredients called for in the recipe.

Again I am not endorsing any product names other than the Tastefully Simple products. : )  All brands are acceptable.

This recipe was truly simple to make.  You literally mix together everything except the peas and the rice and put it in the crock-pot for three hours.  Well you do actually have to dice the chicken, but that is the most work you have to do. Here is a picture of the mixture before I poured it into the crock-pot.

 It smelled delicious after not much time cooking and continued to get even more aromatic and tasty smelling throughout the entire cooking process!  I was looking forward to dinner all evening long and not just because we were eating so late!

The recipe will definitely feed at least 6 people.  Although unless you have allowed your children to eat spicy food I would advise making them some chicken nuggets tossed with Seasoned Salt or Fiesta Party Dip Mix for the kiddos.  Also if you have someone who has a sensitive stomach I would use less of the curry and Fiesta Party Dip mix.

Here is the final product.  As you can see Nick really loved this dish!

Come back by tomorrow night when I am going to make Beef and Onion Vegetable Soup and Parmesan/Cheddar Beer bread!  Don't worry, I've already looked and Dinner can be ready by 6:30pm!  Happy Eating!
