Here\u2019s an easy adaptation of a staple in homes across West Africa: chicken stew thickened with \u201cground nuts,\u201d also known as peanuts. Garlic, ginger and tomato build layers of flavor for the broth, and at the end we swirl in chunky natural<\/em> peanut butter (no added sugars or oils), which adds a delightful richness. The combination of flavors is exciting and distinct.<\/p>\n

Dark chicken leg meat is ideal, because it doesn\u2019t overcook easily \u2013 this lets you bubble the stew down until the broth reaches your preferred consistency with no worries about dry meat. And cooking bone-in chicken adds richness and body to the broth. I let it simmer for 30 minutes, which cooked it almost down into a sauce. You can choose skinless chicken to reduce the fat content.<\/p>\n

This dish is full of medium-carb ingredients, but they\u2019re all high-flavor and pack a punch in small amounts. I\u2019ve tweaked the recipe bring the net carbs within the bounds of most keto meal plans, and I couldn\u2019t have been happier with the result.<\/p>\n\n
