Ingredients
1 kg Boneless, Skinless Chicken Thighs
3 tsp Garlic (minced)
2 tsp Ginger (grated)
150 g Crunchy Peanut Butter
2 tsp Mild Curry Powder
3 tbsp Honey
4 tbsp Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
2 Red Peppers (cut into small chunks)
Juice of 1–2 Limes
Salt and Black Pepper, to taste
Optional: Chopped Cilantro or Crushed Peanuts for garnish
Instructions
- Place chicken thighs, garlic, ginger, peanut butter, curry powder, honey, and soy sauce in the slow cooker.
- Stir to coat the chicken evenly in the sauce.
- Cover and cook on HIGH for 4 hours or LOW for 6 hours until the chicken is tender.
- About 30 minutes before the end of cooking, add the chopped red peppers and stir them into the sauce.
- Once cooked, squeeze in the lime juice and stir well. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
- Serve the chicken and sauce over steamed jasmine rice or noodles.
- Garnish with chopped cilantro or crushed peanuts before serving, if desired.
Notes
Use chicken breasts instead of thighs for a leaner version; cook for about 3 hours on HIGH.
For more spice, add chili flakes, chili paste, or sriracha.
Swap peanut butter for almond butter or sunflower seed butter for a nut-free version.
Add vegetables like green beans, baby corn, or carrots for extra color and nutrition.
Loosen the sauce with a splash of coconut milk or hot water if it thickens too much.
