Creating Cooker Peanut Chicken is as easy as following these steps:

1. Prepare the Chicken: Start by trimming excess fat from the chicken thighs. Rinse and pat them dry.
2. Mix the Sauce: In a bowl, combine the peanut butter, soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, and chili flakes. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
3. Layer in Slow Cooker: Place the chicken thighs in the bottom of the slow cooker. Pour the peanut sauce mixture over the chicken, ensuring every piece is well coated.
4. Season: Add salt and pepper to taste.
5. Cook: Cover and cook on low for 4 to 6 hours or high for 2 to 3 hours, until the chicken is fork-tender.
6. Shred the Chicken: Once cooked, use two forks to shred the chicken directly in the slow cooker. Stir well to incorporate it with the sauce.
7. Taste and Adjust: Taste the sauce and adjust seasonings, adding more soy sauce or honey if needed.
8. Serve: Spoon the Cooker Peanut Chicken over cooked rice or noodles.
9. Garnish: Top it with chopped cilantro and crushed peanuts for an extra crunch!
10. Enjoy: Serve hot and enjoy every delicious bite!
