👨🍳 Οδηγίες
- 1
Marinate the chicken pieces with salt, black pepper, thyme, and half of the minced garlic and ginger for at least 30 minutes.
- 2
Grill or pan-sear the marinated chicken pieces until golden brown on all sides. Set aside.
- 3
Grind the roasted peanuts into a smooth paste using a food processor or mortar and pestle. Add a little water if needed to achieve a smooth consistency.
- 4
In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Sauté the remaining onions until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- 5
Add the remaining garlic, ginger, and scotch bonnet pepper (if using), and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- 6
Stir in the crushed tomatoes and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and the oil starts to separate.
- 7
Add the peanut paste to the tomato mixture and stir well to combine. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent sticking.
- 8
Pour in the chicken broth and add the bay leaf. Bring the sauce to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened.
- 9
Return the grilled chicken pieces to the peanut sauce. Cover and simmer for another 20-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
- 10
Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. Remove the bay leaf before serving.
