Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

  • 1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk

  • ½ cup chicken broth

  • 2 tablespoons peanut butter

  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar

  • 2 tablespoons fish sauce

  • 2 tablespoons lime juice

  • 2 tablespoons Thai green curry paste

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 (1 inch) piece fresh ginger, finely chopped

  • 2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts

  • 1 onion, chopped

  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch

  • 2 tablespoons water

  • ½ cup mixed vegetables, or to taste

  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped

Directions

  1. Place coconut milk, chicken broth, peanut butter, brown sugar, fish sauce, lime juice, curry paste, garlic, and ginger into the bottom of a slow cooker. Whisk to blend. Add chicken, making sure all sides are coated in sauce. Stir in onion.

  2. Cover and cook on High for 3 hours. Transfer chicken to a plate and let cool slightly; cut into bite-sized pieces. Return to the slow cooker.

  3. Mix cornstarch and water together in a small bowl; set aside.

  4. Stir mixed vegetables and bell pepper into the slow cooker. Cover and continue cooking until chicken is no longer pink in the center and vegetables are tender, about 1 hour, adding cornstarch mixture during the last 20 minutes to thicken if necessary.

Tips:

You can use whole chicken thighs instead of breasts, if desired.

You can also cook this on Low for 6 hours total. Depending on what vegetables you use, harder vegetables may need a little more time to cook.
