Instructions
Step 1
In a nonstick skillet, heat the coconut oil over medium high. Once hot, add the onion and cook until beginning to soften, about 5 minutes



Step 2
Add the ginger, garlic, curry, garam masala, chili powder, salt, and tomato paste. Cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.







Step 3
Transfer the onions to a slow cooker

Step 4
Lay the chicken on top, then the cauliflower florets, and top with tomato sauce.


Step 5
Stir to combine the florets and sauce a bit, leaving the chicken pieces undisturbed underneath
Step 6
Scatter the butter pieces over the top.

Step 7
Cover and cook on high for 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours or on low for 4 to 6 hours, until the chicken is cooked through
Step 8
When the chicken is done, remove it to a cutting board and let cool slightly.

Step 9
At this point, the cauliflower is not likely to be tender. Give the contents of the slow cooker a big stir to coat the florets with the sauce
Step 10
Recover the slow cooker and cook on HIGH until the florets are completely tender, about 30 minutes to 1 hour more.
Step 11
Once the chicken is cool enough to handle safely, cut it into bite-size pieces. Return to the slow cooker with the tender florets.
Step 12
Stir in the coconut milk

Step 13
Let cool a few minutes, then stir in the Greek yogurt
