African Peanut Chicken (slow cooker)

This tasty, full-flavored dish makes lots of good sauce and is great served over steamed rice. Pop it in your slow cooker before heading off to work for a delicious meal to come home to!

Makes about 4 servings
1 lb SUNSET® Campari® Tomatoes, halved (i used one 14 oz. can of drained, diced tomatoes)
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/3 cup chunky peanut butter
1 – 1 1/2 tsp hot sauce (depending on how much spiciness you like), or substitute a pinch of cayenne pepper
4 large boneless skinless chicken breast halves
3/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground coriander

Place tomatoes in bottom of slow cooker. Distribute onion over tomatoes, dollop with peanut butter, and drizzle with hot sauce. Arrange chicken on top of onions, sprinkle evenly with salt and spices, and then turn chicken pieces over.

Set slow cooker on high and cook chicken for 8 hours, or on low for 12 hours. When chicken is done, transfer the pieces to a deep platter or bowl. Stir sauce to mix ingredients, and spoon over chicken.

Chef's Notes: If you happen to have ground cloves in your pantry, they make a nice addition; try adding 1/8 tsp to the spices.
