Ingredients
 

  • 500g diced chicken breast
  • 200g bacon (or 3 slices)
  • 250g cream cheese
  • 2 x salami slices
  • 4 mushrooms sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes
  • 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon red curry paste
  • (1 teaspoon cornflour & 1 tablespoon water if required)
  • 1 lemon (for garnish/squeezing over end dish)

Instructions
 

  • Slice salami/bacon/mushrooms and place into slow cooker bowl with chicken.
  • Cut cream cheese into blocks and put over the top of the chicken
  • Mix paprika, chili flakes/chili sauce/curry paste together and pour over chicken & cream cheese.
  • Stir altogether
  • Cook on Auto for 2:30 (High, for 2:00, low for 00:30)
  • No teatowel required
  • With about 00:30 to go, I added a slurry of cornflour and water and stirred through the mixture to prevent cream splitting.

Notes

  • I only stirred this in the last hour to ensure it was all mixed through. It does remain quite thick until the last 30 minutes when it thins out
  • I used a 3.5l Breville Meal Maker which cooks hot, so you may need to adjust cooking times to your own slow cooker
  • This was served with fresh pasta & steamed vegies.
  • It would also be fine served with vegies on the side, and a serving of rice.
  • I squeezed a slice of lemon over the top just to add a bit of tang to the dish.
  • This dish does have a slight 'kick' to it - you can omit the curry paste if you choose
