Slow-cooker chicken in spicy peanut sauce

This recipe had me at "slow cooker." Course, it almost lost me at "diced tomatoes" and "peanut butter," but then I thought again of "slow cooker."

I have to say this unusual combo was a great dinner. By that I mean very spicy with minimal clean up. There are no tricks here.

Just combine these seemingly uncomplimentary ingredients, add chicken, and leave on the "warm" setting of your crock pot all day long.
