Poulet moambe is a delicious West African dish made with chicken, peanut butter, tomatoes, onions, and spices. The dish has a rich, flavorful taste that’s perfect for anyone who enjoys bold flavors. The combination of the sweetness from the tomatoes and the nuttiness from the peanut butter creates a unique and satisfying meal.
To make Poulet moambe at home, follow this recipe:
Ingredients:
– 1 whole chicken, cut into pieces
– 2 medium onions, chopped
– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 large tomato, chopped
– 1 cup smooth peanut butter
– 2 cups chicken broth
– 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
– Fresh cilantro or parsley for garnish
Instructions:
1. In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and garlic, and sauté until they become translucent.
2. Add the chicken pieces to the pot, seasoning them with salt and pepper. Cook the chicken for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until it’s browned.
3. Stir in the chopped tomato and cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the tomatoes to soften slightly.
4. Add the peanut butter and chicken broth to the pot, stirring continuously to combine everything together. Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for about 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
5. If you prefer a spicier dish, add crushed red pepper flakes during the last few minutes of cooking.
6. Once the chicken is done, taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning as needed.
7. Serve the Poulet moambe over rice or couscous, garnished with fresh cilantro or parsley. Enjoy!
