This stew recipe is based on the interesting African Groundnut Stew we had somewhere along our travels. My version is quick and easy while mimicking all the long-simmered flavors the traditional stew has. Note: Groundnut is what peanuts are called in African cuisine.

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 pounds pork roast, fat trimmed, cut into 1-inch cubes
• 1 large sweet potato, peeled, and cut into 1-inch cubes
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
• 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
• One 28-ounce can diced tomatoes with green chilies
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1/4 cup mango chutney
• 1/4 teaspoons dried thyme
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• Chopped peanuts, for garnish

Instructions

1. Sprinkle pork and potatoes with salt and pepper. In a Dutch oven, heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium heat, then cook pork and potatoes for 4-6 minutes or until pork is browned. Remove and set aside. In the same pan, sauté onion in remaining oil until tender.
2. Stir in the tomatoes, chicken broth, peanut butter, chutney, thyme, cayenne, pork, and sweet potatoes. Bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low, then cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until potato is tender. Give each serving a sprinkle of chopped peanuts and serve hot.

Recipe Notes

Nutritional analysis does not include peanuts for garnish.
