Huku ne Dovi (Peanut Butter Stew)

-2 med. onions, finely chopped
-2 Tbsp. butter
-2 cloves garlic, crushed
-1 tsp. salt
-1/2 tsp. pepper
-1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper
-2 green bell peppers, chopped
-1 chicken, cut into pieces (may use skinless, boneless chicken if preferred)
-3 to 4 tomatoes
-6 Tbsp. creamy peanut butter, divided
-1/2 lb. fresh spinach, or 1 package frozen spinach

1) Cook onions with butter in a big stew pot until browned.
2) Add garlic, salt, and seasonings. Stir, adding green peppers and chicken.
3) Once the chicken is browned, add the tomatoes and mash them with a fork.
4) Add 2 C. water and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes. Add half the peanut butter to the pot, lower heat, and continue to simmer.
5) In a separate pan, cook the spinach. If using fresh spinach, wash the leaves, add about 2 Tbsp. water to a saucepan with the spinach and heat over med-low until spinach leaves are limp and tender. If using frozen spinach, cook according to package directions.
6) Add the rest of the peanut butter to the spinach and heat for 5 minutes.
7) Serve the stew and the greens together. (this is also sometimes served with Sadza, a cornmeal mush.)

Serves 6 to 8.
