African Chicken in Peanut Sauce

I first had this in graduate school when a classmate from Ghana cooked it for an International progressive dinner. I fell in love with the combination of sweet peanuts and pungent spices. This is not a flavor you will easily forget, and it will keep you coming back for more!

Инструкции

  1. Stir together the Spice Rub ingredients and rub onto chicken
  2. Heat 1 Tbsp oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium high. Add chicken in batches and brown on all sides. Transfer browned pieces to a platter or bowl.
  3. Add 1 Tbsp oil, onion, bell peppers, carrot, garlic, and jalapeno to the pan. Cook about 5 min, until vegetables are soft. Add chicken broth and simmer about 20 minutes uncovered. Reduce heat to medium-low, stir in remaining sauce ingredients, and simmer 2 minutes. Return browned chicken to the skillet and cook 25-30 minutes until chicken is tender. Stir occasionally to keep sauce from sticking. Turn chicken pieces mid-way through to ensure even cooking.
  4. Garnish with parsley and serve over rice (we use brown rice). A green vegetable or salad makes a nice side.
