For a weeknight, instant brown rice makes a fast side for this saucy dish. If you have time, though, basmati rice pairs particularly well with the flavors in the garam masala.
This Cornbread Crusted Chicken with Jalapeno recipe contains bacon, cream cheese, boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, yellow cornmeal, shredded cheddar cheese and more.
Using the cilantro stems for the base of the sauce (instead of throwing them in the trash) is a flavorful way to stretch a buck or two. If you can't find skin-on boneless chicken thighs, purchase bone-in and bone them yourself or have the butcher do so.
Chicken thighs prepared in the slow cooker make for an effortless and delicious weeknight meal. To find more recipes like this one, see our complete chicken recipe and slow-cooker recipe collections.
Serve with Quick Chive Mashed Potatoes and Asparagus with Lemon and Pecorino. This quick braised dish tastes like it has been cooking for hours. We make 1/2-inch-deep cuts in the chicken to expedite the cook time.
