WEST AFRICAN GROUNDNUT STEW (MAFE)
This is a yummy spicy stew, popular in Western Africa, particularly Senegal, Gambia, Mali and the Ivory Coast. Traditionally, it's made with black-eyed peas, but you can sub stew meat (usually chicken or beef) if you like! I was a little bit uncertain about the peanut butter, but it balanced the spiciness really well and gave the stew a creamy texture.

- Add the oil to a large pot set over med-high heat. Season the chicken pieces liberally with salt and pepper on all sides and brown them in the hot oil for about 2.5 minutes per side (they’ll finish cooking in the stew). Transfer to a tray/plate and set aside for now.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the diced onion and sweet potato to the pot (and more oil, if it needs it). Season lightly with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 6 to 8 minutes, just until the potatoes begin to tenderize/brown. Add the cumin, ginger, garlic, chili pepper, peanuts, peanut butter, and kale (or cabbage). Stirring, allow this to cook for about a minute. Season, as needed.
- Add the crushed tomatoes, chickpeas (if using), and the chicken stock (I like my stew hearty, and never add the full box, but that’s up to you).
- Slide the chicken thighs, along with their juices, into the pot. Simmer the stew, uncovered, until the chicken and sweet potatoes are both cooked and tender; about 25 minutes. Remove the chicken to a cutting board and chop/shred it. Add back into the pot.
