Tamarind Chicken
This easy tamarind chicken recipe uses chutney to create a tangy flavor. If tamarind chutney isn’t available in your area, tamarind concentrate can be used but it will need to be diluted. Also you’ll want to add about a teaspoon of sugar or honey. This recipe is best if the chicken is allowed to marinade for a few hours.

Would this have a sweet/spicy flavor? I have used tamarind before with Indian food cooking. Would this work in a crock pot??
Yes, it does have a sweet/spicy flavor. It would work in a crock pot but I’d suggest a slight brown on the meat first (unless you prefer the more “stewed” meat texture. Cheers and thanks for the question.
it’s amazing
thank you for the recipe 🙂
