Introduction
This is one of my family's very favorite dinners. One of the best things about this recipe is how easy it is to adjust to your own tastes. I entered it in with my true ingredients, which are SPICY! If you don't like it super spicy, adjust your ratio of Sweet Thai chili sauce (found in the grocery store asian food section) and the spicy Sambal Oelek (found in the same section). Try 1/4 cup of sambal oelek and 3/4 cup sweet chili sauce. Also very good with skinless chicken thighs, trimmed. I just ordered PB2 and am looking forward to trying it with this recipe, to cut the fat back even further! This is one of my family's very favorite dinners.

Ingredients
-
6 boneless skinless chicken thighs (or breasts -- or a combination!)
1/3 cup Reduced Fat Peanut Butter (I use Skippy)
2 Tbsp lime juice
1 Tbsp soy sauce (I like the flavor of Tamari best)
1 tsp grated fresh ginger
1/2 cup sweet chili sauce (see note above!)
1/2 cup Sambal Oelek ground chili paste (see note above!)
1/2 cup chopped peanuts
3 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
Directions
Place chicken (trimmed of visible fat) into slow cooker.
Mix together peanut butter, lime juice, soy sauce, ginger, sweet chili sauce and sambal oelek. Our over chicken.
Cook on Low 8 hours or on High 4 hours.
Serve 1 piece of chicken and sauce with chopped peanuts and cilantro as garnish.
Weight Watchers = 6 points per serving
Wonderful with a 1/2 cup of rice on the side.
Remember that you won't be using all the sauce, so the calories and fat that are listed are higher than what you will actually be eating!

This is really, really good, as suggested by another reviewer I served it with red cabbage, the crunch complimented the chicken and the spice. Served with rice and green beans, cashews instead of peanuts. Threw all the leftovers in the pot and stuck it in the fridge and can't wait to eat it cold! - 5/25/14
