SLOW COOKER THAI CHICKEN -- WEIGHT WATCHERS RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Slow Cooker Thai Chicken -- Weight Watchers Recipe - (4.2/5) image

Provided by cosmos2015

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

13 1/2 ounces light coconut milk
7 teaspoons Thai curry paste, red variety, divided (or to taste)
1 1/2 teaspoons table salt (or to taste)
1/2 head (large) uncooked cauliflower, cut into small florets
1 pound uncooked potatoes, peeled, cut into small chunks
1 medium sweet red pepper, cut into chunks
2 medium uncooked carrots, cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices
1 1/2 pounds uncooked chicken breasts, boneless skinless (6, 4 ounce pieces)
2 tablespoons reduced-fat peanut butter
1/3 cup cilantro, fresh, chopped
3 medium uncooked scallions, sliced
1 medium fresh lime, cut into 6 wedges
2 tablespoons peanuts, salted, chopped

Steps:

In a 4x6 quart slow cooker, whisk together coconut milk, 4 teaspoons curry paste and salt until blended. Add cauliflower, potatoes, pepper and carrots; toss to mix and coat. Rub 2 teaspoons curry paste all over chicken; place chicken on top of vegetable mixture. Cover slow cooker and cook on LOW setting until chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender, about 5 to 6 hours. Remove chicken to a cutting board and cut into bite-size pieces (or shred using two forks); set aside. Stir peanut butter and remaining 1 teaspoon curry paste into slow cooker until blended. Add chicken back to slow cooker with cilantro and scallions; gently stir to coat. Spoon onto plates or into bowls and serve with lime wedges; sprinkle each serving with 1 teaspoon peanuts. Yields about 1 1/2 cups per serving. Notes: Make sure to cut the cauliflower, carrots and potatoes into similar-size small pieces so they cook through in a similar amount of time. Season to taste with salt and fresh lime juice before serving, if desired. For a spicier kick, serve with sriracha sauce on the side.

Number Of Ingredients 16

Ingredients

6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into 1/2 inch strips
1 large red bell pepper, seeded and sliced into strips
1 large onion, coarsely chopped
½ cup chicken broth
¼ cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon ground cumin
3 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons cornstarch
⅔ cup creamy peanut butter
1 tablespoon soy sauce
¼ cup lime juice
3 green onion, chopped
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
½ cup chopped roasted peanuts

Steps:

Place the chicken breast strips, bell pepper and onion into a slow cooker. Pour in the chicken broth and 1/4 cup of soy sauce, then season with cumin, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Stir to blend, then cover and cook on Low for 4 1/2 to 5 hours.
Remove 1 cup of the liquid from the slow cooker, and mix this with the cornstarch, peanut butter, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and lime juice. This should blend into a fairly thick sauce. Stir the sauce back into the slow cooker, and place the lid on the pot.
Cook on High for 30 minutes. Garnish with green onions, cilantro and peanuts before serving.

Tips:

Use fresh ingredients whenever possible. This will give your dish the best flavor and texture.
Don't be afraid to experiment with different flavors. Thai food is known for its bold and complex flavors, so feel free to add or adjust ingredients to suit your taste.
Be careful not to overcook the chicken. Chicken is a lean protein, so it can easily become dry and tough if it's cooked for too long. Cook it until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Serve the chicken with your favorite sides. Rice, noodles, and vegetables are all popular accompaniments to Thai chicken dishes.
