- 2–3 tablespoons Thai red or green chili/curry paste, to taste
- 1/2 tablespoon ground cayenne pepper

- Combine coconut milk, soy sauce, curry paste, cayenne pepper, ginger, garlic, chicken, onion, and peppers in your slow cooker.
- Stir to coat. Add one-quarter of the lime. Reserve the remaining wedges, setting them aside.
- Cover and cook mixture on high for 2 hours. Stir in salt to taste. Serve over rice with remaining lime wedges for garnish.
- To make this recipe using poultry that has already been cooked, simply omit it from this step and proceed as directed.
