The benefit of a slow cooker is that it does almost all the work for you, so why not lean in? In this kid-friendly recipe, peanut butter (use the standard stuff, like Skippy or Jif, rather than a “natural” variety, for best results) thickens and flavors a simple sauce for delightfully tender boneless, skinless chicken thighs. A big squeeze of lime juice to finish this rich, nutty dish is crucial for balance and bite, while thinly sliced scallions and jalapeños add some freshness and crunch. Pro tip: For a totally hands-off meal, enlist your rice cooker to make the side.
