👨🍳 Instrucciones
- 1
Heat vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- 2
Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until it darkens slightly. Add the crushed tomatoes and cook for another 5 minutes, breaking them up with a spoon.
- 3
Add the chicken pieces to the pot and cook until lightly browned on all sides. Stir in the rinsed sorghum, chicken broth, and peanut butter. Whisk until the peanut butter is fully incorporated.
- 4
Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Add the diced sweet potato, carrots, chopped cabbage, and habanero pepper (if using). Season with salt and black pepper.
- 5
Cover the pot and simmer for at least 1 hour to 1 hour 30 minutes, or until the sorghum is tender and the chicken is cooked through. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Add more broth or water if the stew becomes too thick.
- 6
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve hot, perhaps with a side of rice or millet.
💡 Consejos de Profesional
- ✓Sorghum takes longer to cook than rice, so ensure it has enough time to become tender.
- ✓For a smoother peanut sauce, you can blend the peanut butter with a little warm broth before adding it to the pot.
- ✓If you don't have habanero, a milder chili pepper can be used, or it can be omitted.
