Slow Cooker Butter Chicken
While rich and creamy, this dish offers several nutritional benefits. The chicken provides lean protein, while ginger and garlic have anti-inflammatory properties. Turmeric contains curcumin, known for its health benefits. To make it healthier, use skinless chicken breast instead of thighs and light coconut milk or yogurt instead of heavy cream. Reduce butter content or use ghee for authentic flavor with less saturated fat. The aromatic spices are rich in antioxidants and may aid digestion. Serve with brown rice for added fiber and nutrients. Consider adding vegetables like peas or spinach for extra nutrition. While delicious, portion control helps make this part of a balanced meal.
