Thai Peanut Chicken Recipe

Recipe By Betty Crocker

Combining sweet, savory and spicy flavors, its no wonder thai peanut chicken is a take-out favorite. But heres a secret: it doesnt 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. Heres 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 ingredientsyour jar of peanut butter and bottle of worcestershirewith a few more specialized, but still widely available, ingredientscurry paste (more on that below), coconut milk and fresh gingerallows 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.
