👨🍳 निर्देश
- 1
Heat peanut oil in a 6-quart Dutch oven or large pot over medium-high heat. Season chicken pieces with salt and pepper. Cook chicken in batches until browned on all sides, about 6-8 minutes per batch. Remove chicken and set aside.

Add the chopped yellow onion to the pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 6 minutes. Add the minced garlic and chopped habanero chile and cook for 2 minutes more until fragrant.

Stir in the tomato paste and cook until slightly caramelized, about 2 minutes. Add the bay leaf and stir.

Pour in the chicken stock, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Bring to a simmer.

In a separate bowl, whisk the peanut butter with about 1 cup of the warm chicken stock until smooth. Add this peanut butter mixture to the pot, stirring until the sauce is smooth.

Return the browned chicken to the pot. Add the carrots, okra, sweet potatoes, and cabbage wedges. Bring the stew to a boil.

Reduce heat to medium-low, partially cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken and vegetables are tender, about 25-30 minutes.

Serve the stew hot over cooked fonio or white rice.
