Have made this two weekends in a row! Plenty of sauce, and I warmed the peanut butter in the microwave to make the sauce easier to stir. I cut the thighs up, and it freezes well. Very easy – great recipe.

9 out of 10. It was really delicious. I cut my thigh pieces in half. Served with steamed broccoli and cauliflower. Brown and wild rice.
Will become a family favourite. So so easy.

This is one of our favourite family dishes! We always use crushed nuts and have used lemon juice in a pinch.
I have once had to use a cup of passata in place of the salsa and it was still delish!

You could do but shouldn’t need to 🙂

Hi, just a question. Have not made this – yet- and am wondering if it would be good to double the sauce? Thanks

I made this last night and it was an absolute hit with every one. It was absolutely delicious and it is so easy to prepare. I used mild salsa and crunchy peanut butter. Next time I will try a salsa with a little more kick in it. I highly recommend this recipe . Super easy and super tasty. Winner winner chicken dinner.

Just tried this one, and…….. loved it. Was a great flavour. Next time I would do a second lot using the hotter salsa for my partners share, as he likes his spicy. Lucky I have more than one slow cooker! Hahaha. Thanks for a great recipe.

Cooked for the first time tonight and…….. loved it. Was easy to put together and very tasty. I would make it with the spicy salsa sauce next time for my partner, as he likes spicy (I do not 🤨) so then we will both be happy. Definitely one I will cook again. Thank you very much 😁👍

Fantastic!!! Both toddlers loved it! I love that you could easily change the spice level by using a different salsa. Definitely worth making again!!

Made this for the first time the other night, thanks to awesome books. Was lush and really easy to make, which I like. Have put on my future meals menu planner on the fridge.

Looking through the book, I came across this recipe, and all the ingredients were ones we generally eat – just not altogether.
Thinking I might give this a go, we had it with drumsticks as that was what I had in the fridge, and was incredibly surprised at the taste of the sauce.
A really lovely combination of ingredients that work really well together
Will definitely be making this again and cant wait to try it with the thighs as suggested in the recipe

Sorry. Wasn’t a huge fan of this one. Taste like it missing something and was watery in texture and flavour.
