This Peanut Butter chicken has quickly landed a starring role in my dinner lineup! Years ago, my husband was the only one who ate it. Now that my kids are older, they love it too! And I love how easy and quick it is! It reheats very well and is perfect over some simple and comforting white rice.
My favorite part of this Peanut Butter Chicken recipe is that it is from the pan to the plate in just twenty minutes. That makes it the perfect weeknight meal! Choose a delicious side dish to round out the meal.
I like to use chicken thighs because they are a little less dry than traditional chicken breasts.
How to Make Peanut Butter Chicken
Just simply dice up the chicken into bite size pieces.
In a heavy pan, brown the chicken.
While the chicken is cooking, make your peanut sauce: whisk together soy sauce, creamy peanut butter, brown sugar, olive oil, ground ginger and white vinegar.

I didn’t have white vinegar, so I used apple cider vinegar instead. Still amazing and so easy! I loved it.
