African Chicken And Peanut Stew

African Chicken And Peanut Stew


1. In a large, heavy pot, heat the oil on med-high. When hot, add the onions and sweet potatoes, stir and cook until onions are soft and translucent.

2. Add chicken, cook til opaque.

3. Stir in the garlic, curry powder, coriander, cumin, and crushed red chiles. Cook 1 minute.

4. Add the carrots, celery, ginger, cinnamon, bay leaf, salt, chicken broth, and tomato paste.

5. Bring the liquid to a boil, then cover and simmer on low for 45 minutes.

6. When the stew has cooked for 45 minutes, stir in the peanut butter. Cook another 3 minutes, uncovered for the flavors to blend.

7. Stir in the chopped tomato and bell pepper. Simmer until the tomatoes and pepper are softened but still retain their shape, 3 to 5 minutes.

8. Stir in lemon juice. Serve with the chopped cilantro on the top, and additional red pepper flakes on the side, if desired.

9. I like to serve this stew over hearty brown rice. Healthy and delicious!
