Notes

Adapted from Slow cooker chicken tikka masala | Recipes | WW USA (weightwatchers.com)
Boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cubed) can be used as an alternative to the chicken thighs.  
This recipe can be adapted to cook in a dutch oven, and either baked or cooked over a campfire/coals.  Simply assemble the ingredients in a dutch oven and then bake/cook at 400° for 3o-minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
