  1. EloiseMason REVIEW:

    Changed this up a bit and made pockets in the chicken instead of just folding it. The sauce and chicken are both great.

  2. Guest Foodie REVIEW:

    I made this tonight for a dinner party that I was having and it was a huge hit! I doubled the recipe for the sauce and "stuffing" for the chicken but only used 6 pieces of chicken instead of a true 8. There was just enough of the peanut stuffing for the 6 (huge) chicken breasts. I served it with angel hair pasta and broccoli with soy sauce, some minced onion and garlic powder. I did have to use more than the called for corn starch to get the sauce to thicken at the end. I'll be filing this recipe away to use again!

  3. Valerie REVIEW:

    Delicious!! The peanut butter mixture was fabulous and stayed in the chicken folds quite well (which surprised us given the amount of liquid added to the crockpot). We served the chicken and sauce over rice, but rice noodles (or pasta) would be great. To give this extra Thai flavor we added crushed peanuts and red pepper flakes on top before serving. This recipe was perfectly cooked in 5 hours on LOW. None of the measurements needed to be exact so you can adjust to taste - which also makes it an easy recipe to scale the serving sizes up or down depending on your needs. We would definitely make this again.
