Slow Cooker Thai Peanut Pork




Slow Cooker Thai Peanut Pork
adapted from Allrecipes

Ingredients

  • 2 red bell pepper, seeded and sliced into strips
  • 4 (8 ounce) boneless pork loin chops (I did 3)
  • 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce
  • 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup chopped green onions
  • 1/4 cup chopped roasted peanuts
  • 2 limes, cut into wedges

Directions

  1. Coat a slow cooker with cooking spray. Place the bell pepper strips and pork chops into the slow cooker {I also added 1/2 sliced red onion}. Pour the teriyaki sauce, vinegar, red pepper flakes, and garlic over the pork chops {I added about 1 cup of water also}.
  2. Cover and cook on Low until the pork is very tender, 8 to 9 hours {I cooked mine for 6 hrs. on low & it was perfect}. Once tender, remove the pork from the slow cooker, and whisk in the peanut butter until smooth. Return the pork to the slow cooker {I shredded it at this point}, and cook 10 minutes more.
  3. Pour into a serving dish and sprinkle with green onions and peanuts to garnish. Decorate with lime wedges to serve.
