Place the tomato sauce, coconut oil, onion, garlic, ginger, spices, and salt in the slow cooker and stir to combine.
15 ounces tomato sauce, 1 yellow onion, 1/4 cup coconut oil, 3 cloves garlic, 1 1/2 tablespoons cumin, 1/2 tablespoon salt, 1/2 tablespoon turmeric, 2 teaspoons fresh ginger, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, 1/2 teaspoon paprika, 1/2 teaspoon pepper
Add the sliced chicken and stir until it's well coated.
2 pounds chicken breasts
Turn the slow cooker on low heat and cook for 3-4 hours or until the chicken is tender and fully cooked.
Stir in the coconut cream and cook for an additional 15 minutes.
1 cup coconut cream
Serve with rice or your favorite curry side!

You can substitute the coconut cream for heavy cream.
While the chicken will be done cooking in 3 hours, I've let it cook up to 6 hours, and it's still so delicious and tender! Even once you add the coconut cream, you can leave it in the slow cooker up to one hour before serving.
If you're in a hurry, cook on high for 2 - 2 1/2 hours or until the chicken is fully cooked.
