Crock Pot Thai Peanut Pork

This slow cooker recipe is a staple for my bosses.  I make it a couple times a month, so I think it's a big hit.  Even the kids liked this one! It is easy to throw together in the morning in the crock pot, and by the later afternoon the house is smelling delicious.  It is truly one of those all day long crock pot recipes, so if you don't have a crock pot that has a timer on it this is perfect.  It takes 8-9 hours to cook.  I think this recipe over rice or quinoa would be really tasty, or a nice side veggie like roasted carrots would be perfect.

    I already had some plain shredded pork in the fridge. I mixed this up with all but the peanut butter and put it on the stove to simmer a bit to meld the flavors. It is already delicious! Can't wait to add the peanut butter before serving over rice and a side of fresh steamed carrots. πŸ˜€ Thanks!

    Is this pork tenderloin or pork chops? Pork tenderloin is mentioned as one of the ingredients but instructions refer to pork chops. Two different cuts of meat.

      Evelyn, this recipe is for pork loin or pork tenderloin. I am not sure where you are reading pork chops. Happy cooking!

    Hi! Can I use the same recipe with chicken breast instead of pork? If so, do I cook them the same amount of time?
    Thanks so much! Can't wait to try!

      YES! Go ahead and cook the with the chicken breast on low for 7 hours or on high for 4 hours! The chicken will cook much faster because it't not such a large piece of meat! Let me know how you like it!

    The ingredients say "pork tenderloin" but the instructions say "pork chops." Does this mean we are supposed to cut the pork tenderloin in some way to resemble pork chops before cooking? They are two different cuts of meat, so I am not sure weather to keep the tenderloin whole.

      So sorry Marsha! I guess I had pork chops on the mind when I was writing. You can leave the pork tenderloin whole or cut it in half, it will cook either way.
