curried chicken casserole

Updated on Jun 21, 2013

Normally I make chicken curry on my stove-top. But this contains all my usual ingredients, goes together quickly, and bakes all by itself. So it can be a time saver. I've never tried this in a crock pot, but it should work well like that, too.

How To Make curried chicken casserole
