Turmeric Braised Chicken in Yogurt

3 Tbsp olive oil
1 chicken, cut into serving pieces
Salt and Pepper to taste
2 large onions, finely chopped
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 tbsp. ground turmeric
1 1/2 tsp ground coriander
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 ½ cups Greek-style yogurt, room temperature*
1 handful of fresh cilantro, roughly chopped

Wash the chicken and pat dry with a dish towel. Heat the oil in a large, heavy skillet. Season chicken with salt and pepper and brown well on both sides in the oil.

Place the onion, garlic, turmeric, coriander and broth in a slowcooker and stir well. Transfer the browned chicken pieces to the slowcooker and cook on low for 4 hours, spooning some of the onion mixture over the chicken once or twice during cooking.

When the chicken is cooked, stir the yogurt and add it along with the cilantro to the crock pot. Give everything a good stir to make sure the yogurt dissolves in the sauce.

Serve over hot cooked rice. Serves 4-6.
