On the western coast of Africa, the peanut is referred to as a groundnut. The combination of chicken and peanut butter sauce is popular in the Ivory Coast.


   4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (2 whole breasts), cut into 1/2-inch pieces
   1 tablespoon peanut oil or vegetable oil
   1 medium onion, chopped
   1 clove garlic, minced
   1 (28-ounce) can whole tomatoes, undrained, cut up
   1 (15 1/2-ounce) can great northern beans, undrained
   1 (11-ounce) can vacuum-packed whole kernel corn, drained
   1 sweet potato, peeled, chopped
   3/4 cup water
   1/4 cup peanut butter
   1 tablespoon tomato paste
   1 teaspoon salt
   1 teaspoon chili powder
   1/2 teaspoon ginger
   1/2 teaspoon ground red cayenne pepper
   3 cups hot cooked rice


In 4-quart Dutch oven over medium-high heat, cook chicken in oil until chicken is lightly browned and no longer pink, stirring frequently. Add onion and garlic; cook and stir 3 to 4 minutes or until onion is tender. Add remaining ingredients except rice; mix well. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover and cook 30 minutes or until sweet potato is tender, stirring occasionally. If stew becomes too thick, add additional water. Serve stew over hot rice.
