THAI CHICKEN THIGHS (CROCK POT)
I found this recipe in 'America's Best Slow Cooker Recipes' by Donna-Marie Pye. I'm sure you can use other parts of the chicken for this recipe but I used boneless, skinless thighs and they were wonderful! I also used all-natural peanut butter so if you use a commercially prepared type, the end result may be a bit different. Also, I cooked this about 9 hours (we were late getting home) and it was just fine.

SLOW-COOKER THAI PEANUT CHICKEN
Combining sweet, savory and spicy flavors, it's no wonder Thai Peanut Chicken is a take-out favorite. But here's a secret: It doesn't have to come from a take-out box to turn out delicious. You, or rather your slow cooker, can do this dinner at home. Thai cooking is all about combining bright, bold ingredients to create big flavor. Here's how that works in this recipe. First, simply choosing chicken thighs will start you off in the right direction. Thighs have more fat and turn out tender (not dry) when slow cooked. Second, dredging your thighs in flour and then browning, before slow cooking, develops the flavor of the meat and helps the sauce turn out thick and velvety. Combining standard ingredients-your jar of peanut butter and bottle of Worcestershire-with a few more specialized, but still widely available, ingredients-curry paste (more on that below), coconut milk and fresh ginger-allows you to build the flavor you know and love. Finally, letting all these elements stew together in the slow cooker over low heat melds them together, so you end up with a perfectly balanced and fully flavored dinner.

Tips:
- Choose boneless, skinless chicken thighs: They are more flavorful and tender than chicken breasts.
- Use a slow cooker liner: It makes cleanup a breeze.
- Don't overcook the chicken: It should be cooked through, but still juicy. About 4-6 hours on low heat or 2-4 hours on high heat is usually enough.
- Add vegetables to the slow cooker: They will absorb the delicious sauce and add extra nutrition to the dish.
- Serve over rice or noodles: This will help to soak up the flavorful sauce.
