👨‍🍳 作り方

1
Heat vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken pieces on all sides, then remove and set aside.
2
Add chopped onions to the pot and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for another minute until fragrant.
3
Stir in the diced tomatoes, cumin, coriander, and turmeric. Cook for 2-3 minutes, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
4
Return the chicken to the pot. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 20 minutes.
5
In a small bowl, whisk the peanut butter with a ladleful of the hot broth until smooth. Stir this mixture back into the stew. Add the dried cranberries.
6
Continue to simmer, uncovered, for another 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
7
Serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro. This stew is traditionally served with sadza (a stiff maize porridge).
