I’m not a big peanut butter fan, but this is actually very tasty with the unusual combination of flavors and seasonings.

1 large chopped onion
2 (10 ounce) cans undrained diced tomatoes with chilies
14.5 ounce can undrained no-salt added diced tomatoes
2 tablespoons honey
1 1/2 tsp. cumin
1 tsp. cinnamon
8 bone-in skinless chicken thighs (about 3 pounds) trimmed of visible fat
1/3 cup creamy reduced-fat peanut butter

1) In a 4-quart or larger slow cooker, combine onion, all tomatoes, honey, cumin and cinnamon.  Add chicken; spoon misture over chicken.

2) Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours. Stir in peanut butter until melted and well-blended.  Serve chicken with sauce.

This can also be served over rice or couscous.

I tried this recipe and it was very, very good. I didn’t have cumin so I used chili.  It is interesting to have the kick, followed by the peanut butter flavour!

This is my new favorite recipe - what unbelievable flavor!
I used bone-in chicken breasts, removing the bones once fully cooked and adding the chicken back in after shredding lightly. I also added big chunks of red peppers along with the onions. This was almost like stew - it was so hearty, I used a spoon instead of a fork!

Joi - Thanks so much and keep those recipes coming!!!

Joi, you have awesome recipes! I cooked a bunch of your recipes this week-end for the first time and everything was so tasty and quick to make! I made the peanut sauce chicken, the french stew chicken, the pizza burgers and tonight, I made the mashed cauliflower, yummy!!! Thank you so much for sharing these. It’s going to make it easier for me to stay on track and not feel deprived at all
