Peanut Butter Chicken

When I told Scott I was making peanut butter chicken, he was very excited! He stated that whenever he goes to a Chinese buffet (yes, we still do from time to time), he always looks for the peanut butter chicken! The best part--he said this tasted just like it! It was a very simple recipe that I'll be making again!

Peanut Butter Chicken-adapted from More Make it Fast, Cook it Slow by Stephanie O'dea
Total Time: 8 hours
Serves 4

  • 1 1/2 pounds chicken breasts, cut into 1 inch chunks
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter (crunchy or creamy-your choice)
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 2 cups cooked white rice for serving, if desired
Grease a 4-5 quart slow cooker. Place chicken in the bottom of the slow cooker and top with the rest of the ingredients. Stir gently to combine. Cover and cook on low 6-8 hours (high for 4). Serve over rice.

Yay! I'm so glad that you and your husband enjoyed your dinner, and I'm glad that it was easy to put together.
I love take-out fakeouts!! :-)
