Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs
- 1 cup store‑bought satay sauce
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp lime juice
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 tsp fresh ginger
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 2 tbsp peanut butter (smooth)
- 1/2 cup coconut milk
- salt, to taste
- 2 tbsp fresh cilantro
- 2 tbsp crushed peanuts
Instructions
- 1Trim any excess fat from the chicken thighs and cut them into bite‑size pieces.
- 2In a large bowl, combine the satay sauce, soy sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, brown sugar, peanut butter, and coconut milk; whisk until smooth.
- 3Add the chicken pieces to the bowl and toss to coat evenly with the sauce mixture.
- 4Transfer the coated chicken and any remaining sauce into the slow cooker, spreading it out in an even layer.
- 5Cover the slow cooker and set to LOW for 4–5 hours, or to HIGH for 2–3 hours, until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
- 6About 15 minutes before the end of cooking, stir the mixture gently to ensure even coating and prevent sticking.
- 7Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or a splash of lime juice if desired.
- 8Once cooked, turn off the slow cooker and let the dish rest for 5 minutes.
- 9Serve the chicken satay over steamed rice or noodles, garnished with chopped cilantro and crushed peanuts.
