crockpot thai chicken thighs

2 1/2 pounds skinless boneless chicken thighs
2 large red bell peppers, seeded and cut into strips
1/3 cup prepared teriyaki sauce (I used Tastefully Simple or Trader Joe's)
2 Tbs rice vinegar
1 tsp red pepper flakes
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup creamy peanut butter

this is a favorite recipe that I also make with a 2 pound pork loin

1. Coat the slow cooker w/ non stick spray. Put the chicken, peppers,teriyaki suace, rice vinegar, red pepper flakes and garlic into cooker.Cover and cook on LOW for 8-9 hours, until chicken is fork tender.

2. Remove the chicken from the cooker and coarsley chop. Add the peanut butter to the liquid in cooker; stir well to dissolove the peanut butter
and blend with the liquid to make the sauce. Return the chicken to the sauce and toss to coat the meat evenly.
