This Indian-style favorite is pretty much the ultimate slow-cooker dish: Simply throw all the ingredients into the pot, go about your day, and you’ll return home to tender, perfectly spiced chicken thighs, ready to devour for dinner. Serve with brown basmati rice and a side of wilted baby spinach or steamed peas as your green veggies.
