Slow Cooker Series - Thai Peanut Curry Chicken

Who doesn't like a good easy slow cooker meal? I think it's one of the easiest hassle free meals ever. With the great idea from Nicole we are going to start a slow cooker series for a couple weeks. All three of us are going to post some good recipes that our a hit in our homes.

I made this dish a couple nights ago and my whole family loved it. I found this recipe on this website, The Slender Kitchen. Then pinned it to my "Healthy Grub" board. I think it is a Weight Watchers recipe but I'm not sure on that. I pretty much followed the recipe only instead of using Coriander I used Curry powder to give it more flavor. I really like how it turned out and will use Curry powder from now on. I served it over brown rice. Serving it over noodles or even Quinoa would be awesome too.
