Ingredients
- 2 chicken thighs
- 1 cup of cubed, lean beef stew
- 1 Large onion
- 2 cloves garlic (chopped)
- ½ cup of tomato sauce
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1 bouillon cube (optional)
- 1 chili ((i used a scotch bonnet pepper))
- 1 cup peanut butter
- ½ cup of okra, (chopped thickly)
- ¼cabbage head, (cut in big chunks)
- ½ cup of zucchini (sliced thickly)
- oil, water
Directions
| 1. | Put 2 tbsp of oil in a cooking pot. When the oil is hot, add the chopped onions and garlic in a pot with 2 tbsp of oil. |
| 2. | Place the chicken and beef with salt and pepper. (skip this step if you are not using meat, obviously ) |
| 3. | Once the meat is well-browned, add enough water to cover it, then add another 2 cups of water. |
| 4. | Once that mixture is boiling, pour in the peanut butter, the tomato sauce and the tomato paste. |
| 5. | Allow the soup to simmer. Once it starts boiling again, add salt, pepper, chili to taste as well as the okra, cabbage and zucchini. |
| 6. | Cook at medium temperature for 20-30 minutes. The soup is done when the oil from the peanut butter appears at the surface of the pot. (Don’t worry health-conscious readers, it’s really not that bad, it is just a very helpful visual cue). |
| 7. | Serve with rice. |
