This recipe turned out to be very flavorful and easy to make.
It's a tad spicy and just about right if you like spicy food.
If not, halve the Cayenne pepper measure.
Like other stews, this dish freezes and keeps well, too.
Save some for a rainy day.
Ingredients
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 boneless chicken breasts
1 3/4 tablespoons salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh-ground black pepper
1 onion, chopped
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 cup canned crushed tomatoes, drained
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
2 3/4 cups water
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1 10-ounce package frozen sliced okra
Directions
In a large pot, heat the oil over moderate heat.
Season the chicken with 1/4 teaspoon each of the salt and black pepper.
Cook until browned, turning, about 8 minutes in all.
Remove. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of fat from the pot.
Reduce the heat to moderately low.
Add the onion to the pot and cook, stirring occasionally,
until it starts to soften, about 3 minutes.
Stir in the tomato paste and then the tomatoes and cayenne.
Return the chicken to the pot and stir in 2 cups of water.
Bring to a simmer and cook, partially covered, for 10 minutes.
Whisk together the peanut butter and the remaining 3/4 cup water until smooth.
Add this mixture to the stew along with the okra and the remaining 11/2 tablesppons of salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
Cook, partially covered, until the okra is just done, about 10 minutes.
Serve over rice.
