I don’t have a video for this recipe.
If I had a photo, I would most certainly use it. That is... unless the photo I have sucks. For now, you'll just have to picture a big heaping helping of

Chicken Peanut Butter Stew

Serves 4 - Using a deli-roasted chicken let’s you make this recipe in very little time. And yes using tomatoes, sweet potatoes and peanut butter sounds very odd – but it’s damn fine.

  • 1 yellow onion, diced
  • 2 inch piece fresh ginger, finely diced
  • 4 cloves garlic

  • 1 – 15 ounce can diced tomatoes
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander (aka ground cilantro seeds)
  • 1 cup smooth peanut butter
  • 1.5 cups deli-roasted chicken, shredded
  • For serving, fresh rice, crushed peanuts and chopped cilantro

Directions

  1. Pre-heat oil in a large pot on medium, add sweet potatoes and onion, cook for 3-4 minutes
  2. Add the ginger and garlic, cook for 1 minute
  3. Add stock, tomatoes, coriander and the peanut butter (yes, peanut butter!) stir well
