Easy Crockpot Thai Pork

We cooked Thai food for New Years Eve. I went online and found some easy recipes. This was the favourite (posted by Marky90), and I don't even like meat. It makes the house smell insanely delicious. Serve over rice, rice noodles or whatever you prefer. Also shown is the homemade pineapple fried rice.

Ingredients
  • 1 (2-pound) boneless pork loin, trimmed of fat and cut into 4 pieces
  • 2 large red bell peppers, cored, seeded, cut into strips
  • 1/3 cup prepared teriyaki sauce
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • For serving:
  • Cooked rice
  • 1/2 cup chopped green onions (white part and half of dark-green stalks)
  • 1/4 cup chopped dry-roasted peanuts
  • 2 limes, cut into 8 to 12 wedges

Directions
Place pork, bell peppers, broth, teriyaki sauce, rice vinegar, red pepper flakes and garlic in cooker. Cover and cook on low setting until pork is fork tender, 8 to 9 hours.
  1. Remove pork from cooker and coarsely chop. Add peanut butter to liquid in cooker; stir well to dissolve peanut butter and blend with liquid to make the sauce. Return pork to sauce and toss to coat the meat.
  2. Serve in shallow bowls over hot rice. Sprinkle with green onions and peanuts. Pass lime wedges, to serve with this wonderful dish.
  3. P.S I like to steam Snap Peas and add to this......!!
