1/4 cup canned full-fat coconut milk

DIRECTIONS
- Place chicken breasts in the bottom of a slow cooker in an even layer.
- In a small mixing bowl, add coconut milk, peanut butter, garlic, honey, coconut aminos, lime juice, sesame oil and red pepper flakes and mix until combined. (It may help to soften the peanut butter).

- Once cooked, remove chicken and shred, then return back to the crock pot and stir until chicken is evenly coated in the peanut sauce.
