Cover, reduce heat to low and simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until chicken is no longer pink in center, 20 to 25 minutes.

In a small bowl, stir cornstarch together with 2 tsp water; stir into sauce.

Cook until sauce thickens, about 1 minute.

Peanut Butter Fingers

I've made this recipe since I was a kid (I believe that my Mom found it in a Reader's Digest magazine) and everyone has always loved it. I was going to make it again yesterday and couldn't find my copy of the recipe. So, I googled for it and was glad to find it here. The recipe is easy and forgiving in terms of amount of ingredients and cooking time. I usually use 1/2 cup of peanut butter rather than 1/3 cup and I usually cook it for 20 minutes or sometimes a little more. It usually doesn't look very done when it comes up, but that is fine. You want the oatmeal "cookie" base to be a little chewy.
