Step 1

Prepare the peanut miso sauce by combining peanut butter, white miso paste, soy sauce, maple syrup, rice vinegar, ginger purée, garlic purée, red chili flakes, black pepper, and sesame seeds in a bowl. Mix until a smooth paste forms.

Step 2

Add the chicken thighs to the slow cooker. Pour in half of the peanut miso sauce and a splash of chicken bone broth or water to thin it slightly. Mix to coat the chicken evenly.

Step 3

Cover the slow cooker and cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 4-5 hours, until the chicken is tender and fully cooked.

Step 4

Once the chicken is done, add the remaining peanut miso sauce and stir thoroughly to combine, ensuring the chicken is coated in the rich, flavorful sauce.

Step 5

Meanwhile, cook the short grain rice according to package instructions and fluff with a fork. Mix the rice into the chicken or keep separate for portioning. Chop the green onions to garnish the meal along with sesame seeds, divide into 7 servings and store leftovers in freezer-safe containers
