Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 2 large Carrots, peeled and diced
- 2 Celery stalks, diced
- 2 medium Potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 1 large Red bell pepper, diced
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 4 cups Chicken broth
- 1 14.5-ounce can Diced tomatoes (canned)
- 0.5 cup Natural peanut butter (creamy)
- 1 cup Coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 cups Baby spinach leaves (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons Crushed peanuts (for garnish)
Instructions
Place the chicken thighs in the bottom of the crockpot.
Add the diced carrots, celery, potatoes, red bell pepper, onion, and minced garlic on top of the chicken.
Pour in the chicken broth and diced tomatoes, ensuring all ingredients are covered in liquid.
In a small bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, coconut milk, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
Pour the peanut butter mixture into the crockpot and gently stir to combine without disturbing the layering too much.
Cover and cook on low heat for 6-7 hours, or until the chicken is tender and vegetables are fully cooked.
Remove the chicken thighs from the crockpot, shred them using two forks, and return the shredded chicken to the soup. Stir to incorporate.
If using baby spinach leaves, stir them into the soup during the last 10 minutes of cooking to wilt.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro and crushed peanuts before serving.
