Peanut Butter Chicken Thighs might sound unusual, but they are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that combines the rich, creamy flavor of peanut butter with the savory taste of chicken thighs.

Ingredients

450 gr chicken tights

1 tsp sea salt

1 tsp black pepper

1 tsp curry powder

1 tsp sweet paprika

Peanut Butter Sauce

1/4 cup peanut butter

1 tbsp soy sauce

1 tbsp lime juice

2 tbsp maple syrup, no sugar

1 pinch red pepper flakes

1 tsp sesame oil

25 gr peanuts, unsalted

cilantro, for garnish

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375°F.

Make the peanut sauce: add the peanut butter, coconut aminos (or soy sauce), lime juice, honey, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes to a bowl or individual blender cup. Stir (or blend) until smooth and creamy.

Add the olive oil or ghee to an oven-safe pan over medium-high heat, and season the chicken thighs on both sides with sea salt.

Once the pan is hot, add the chicken thighs and sear for 3-4 minutes per side. Once seared, pour the peanut sauce over the chicken thighs and bake in the oven for 25 minutes.

Garnish with crushed peanuts, fresh cilantro, and enjoy!
