02 - Place chicken thighs or breasts evenly over the base of the slow cooker.
03 - Pour prepared peanut sauce over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are thoroughly covered.
04 - Cook on low for 4–5 hours or on high for 2–3 hours, until chicken is tender and shreds easily with a fork.
05 - Using two forks, shred the chicken directly in the slow cooker and fold to coat evenly in the sauce.
06 - Top with crushed peanuts, chopped fresh coriander, sliced spring onions, or sesame seeds. Serve hot with a choice of steamed rice or noodles.
